Dot Grid in 2D Model Space
Sets the grid style to dotted grid for 2D model space. (
GRIDSTYLE (page 1345)
system variable)
Dot Grid in Paper Space
Sets the grid style to dotted grid for sheet and layout. (
GRIDSTYLE (page 1345)
system variable)
Grid Spacing
Controls the display of a grid that helps you visualize distances.
NOTE The limits of the grid are controlled by the LIMITS (page 575) command
and the
GRIDDISPLAY (page 1343) system variable.
Grid X Spacing
Specifies the grid spacing in the X direction. If this value is 0, the grid assumes
the value set for Snap X Spacing. (
GRIDUNIT (page 1346) system variable)
Grid Y Spacing
Specifies the grid spacing in the Y direction. If this value is 0, the grid assumes
the value set for Snap Y Spacing. (
GRIDUNIT (page 1346) system variable)
Major Line Every
Specifies the frequency of major grid lines compared to minor grid lines. Grid
lines rather than grid dots are displayed when
GRIDSTYLE (page 1345) is set to
0. (
GRIDMAJOR (page 1344) system variable)
Grid Behavior
Controls the appearance of the grid lines that are displayed when
GRIDSTYLE
(page 1345) is set to 0.
Adaptive Grid
Limits the density of the grid when zoomed out. (GRIDDISPLAY (page 1343)
system variable)
Allow Subdivision Below Grid Spacing:
Generates additional, more closely spaced grid lines when zoomed in. The
frequency of these grid lines is determined by the frequency of the major grid
lines. (
GRIDDISPLAY (page 1343) and GRIDMAJOR (page 1344) system variables)
Display Grid Beyond Limits
Displays the grid beyond the area specified by the LIMITS (page 575) command.
(
GRIDDISPLAY (page 1343) system variable)
