Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the CQ-editor code responsible for drawing the 3D axis lines and inspect how their colors are configured. Done should mean the negative-direction lines can be made darker through a documented option, with the existing axis display still working by default.

Description

an option to make axis lines darker in the negative would be nice to more easily orient yourself
