This is my own fault, I admit, but I absentmindedly set my set of holes back from my leading edge at 32mm instead of 37mm. Not a huge deal in the scope of things, not worth going back and fixing - I can do that with how I make the edging and drawer fronts.

It would be nice, and fairly easy, to have a reminder to set it at 37mm for a front edge with a different color line on that measurement. Red, or even a Festool green.

Just a suggestion.
 
Even though many brands (Blum and KV come to mind) use 37mm as the initial set back, not every brand is the same.  Putting a mark at 37 may be more confusing in the scheme of things.  I make it a habit to check the spec sheets every time I install hardware.  I've gone so far as to laminate a good copy to go with each of my most used bits of hardware.

Just my  [2cents]

You could add marks with a sharpie as a reminder.

That's what I'll end up doing. Probably red pen on that line.

Interesting. All the ones I've used are 37mm, but come to think of it most are KV. I thought 37mm was universal for hinges, at the very least.
