BlenderBIM: General visibility

1. C by Coen on 12 Feb 2022, edited 12 Feb 2022 # +1 votes

   I use the IfcGrid quite a lot for detailed modelling, however I recently learned you can't colorize edges in Blender.

   So I was looking for ways to visualize objects better in the 3D View in Blender. I found I can set the background to white.

   

   Slightly better, but still not really visible.

   Is it also possible to annotate the grid in the 3D view?, so I can see if I'm selecting grid line A, B, or 1 or 2.

   Instead of using the object viewer.

   General tips on how to visualize things better in BlenderBIM regarding an IFC roundtripping workflow are highly appreciated.

   Regarding vanilla Blender, you can change the general color of the edges in preferences > theme > 3d viewport > wire

   This will affect every wire in object mode. "Wire edit" changes the colors in edit mode.
