Draw Xray is an add-on used in Blender that allows an X-ray overlay to be placed over the model at all times to help retopology. This ensures users know how the retopo mesh works with the high-poly model. Besides having different colors and the degree of opacity adjustable, it has many modes like Sculpt, Edit, Paint, Object, and with the paid one, the custom snapping engine and retopo stroke tools. It is excellent for boosting the quality of the retopology handwork done in Blender, as it shows meshes working together in much better detail than other tools in Blender.
