Displaying points in non selected layers

Post by ggoblin »

Sorry newbie question.. how do I see the points in a layer that is not selected?

For example when I'm in the bone group layer to create a new bone I want to be able to see where the points are in my shape (in a sub layer under the bone group) so I can create the right size bone in the right place. How do I do that? By default Moho seems to only display the points in the current layer. How do I display points of all layers, or be able to select which layers display points? There is a wireframe Display Quality setting but it doesn't show points, just paths.

Thank you.

Right click on the path in the layerspanel and select Quick settings. Under details you can select 'path'. That's your solution.

Thanks Franky1966 for the reply. I already tried that but it didn't work for me.. it shows the path but not the points on the path.

You could try the Mark Points script: https://mohoscripts.com/script/sz_mark_points

which "Marks the locations of all points in the current vector layer.", and was created for this exact scenario.
