Changing visual size of points

Post by MiriamtheCurrious »

Hello,
I'm looking for a way to adjust the size that points appear. My dad :geek: , who is keen to learn FreeCAD, is struggling because he can barely see the points or place the curser precisely enough to select them. I'm sure there's a setting for it somewhere, but cannot find it. Thanks

That setting helps with the point size in a sketch (which is useful, thanks), but seams to have no effect on how points appear once a sketch is closed. Any other surgestions?

Properties panel>view tab>Object style>point size.

But this is not global, I think...

Point size in the sketcher properties. I made it extreme big for the picture
