Greetings all; In the axis backplot, how hard would it be to change the round white disk currently in the z views that is used when no tool is loaded, into a semi-translucent image that the backplot can be seen thru, with a crosshair at a 45 degree angle like an X thats 100% transparent?
That would make it possible to check a drill hole location to see where pcb-gcode put that hole. Then if on the same x or y, pcb-gcode could be convinced to put another hole in the far end of the etch pattern just for alignment registration, it would become a couple button clicks to use BigJohns align utility to make a perfectly registered double sided pcb when the pcb blank is just stuck to the table with dbl-sided tape. But when that solid tool image is blocking the view of the hole one is using for registration, the accuracy of locating the hole(s) suffers.
