\*_The problem that this feature will solve:_

It becomes very difficult to work on small objects with a lot of sketch element. See the screenshot below. How in the world is this not already a feature.

_Is this a workflow blocker for you? Is this why you can’t use Shapr3D for work? Is this slowing you down?_

The screenshot should show this plainly. In order to work on elements of the sketch, I have to constantly zoom in and zoom out just to be able to see what I’m actually working on.

Hi @mwagener, does it make it easier for you if you set “Constraint & Locked Dimension Visibility” in the Constraint Settings menu on the right to “Selection-based”?
