Research direction

The payload names no files. The project is a Kotlin Android camera app, so start by locating where the camera preview is drawn and where the existing viewfinder settings live. Done means a grid overlay and a golden-ratio overlay can be shown on the preview, and the issue's open questions (which grid, whether it is a toggle) are settled with the maintainers first, since the thread has been idle for about 644 days.
