Vector point visibility on bone layer

Hello,

I have a bone layer that contains a vector layer. Is there any way to see the vector points on the bone layer?
I keep having to move back and forth between the layers and hope I get the bone position right relative to the vectors.

Thanks

It's possible but it's a very well hidden option (that should probably be in the layer settings instead):

Right-click the Vectorlayer and go to 'Quick Settings...' and in there, there's a 'Details' box which contains a checkbox 'Paths'

Now, when you select a different layer, you see the contours of the path. And when you select the parent layer of the vector, you even see the points of the vectors. Very useful!

You can also make this the default for new layers: Edit>Preferences>Layers/Objects>Show paths for new layers
