Multiple Grids?

Hi all,

First time poster, and let me open with my great appreciation for OWM. I've used a lot of different cartography packages, and based on ease of use, rich feature set, and customization ability, OWM has become my clear favourite. Really well done!

My feature request is for a second grid. There are two use cases I can think of:
  1. You want to create sub-hexes within a larger hex (e.g., my primary grid is 30 mile hexes broken into 6-mile hexes on a secondary grid).
  2. You want to overlay a square grid over a hex grid to apply cartesian references to your map (e.g., http://columbiagames.com/pix/5700-melderyn-map.jpg)


Thanks again for your great work!

Cheers,
-Erin
