Simulation»Grid (Ctrl Alt G)
Activates the Grid dialog, which defines the boundaries and appearance of the world. The Reset
button resets the grid appearance and size to reasonable values.
Grid Units can be set to any convenient value and need not match the units used when the model
was created. For optimal display and control, the grid dimensions (Min/Max grid value) should
exceed the dimensions of the model itself. The Grid subdivision size defines the spacing of the
grid, for visual clarity only (excessively small spacing can greatly increase the CPU requirements
during scene rendering). The Snap to grid check box and associated input field define a rounding
factor that can optionally be used when interactively constructing objects using the mouse
pointer.
Select Grid color to set the color of the grid lines (the background color is set using the Simulation»Options
dialog).
The main axis (model origin), grid contour boundary and grid subdivision lines can all be
toggled visible or invisible using the Display Show check boxes.
The coordinate frame marker size, color and style can also be controlled from the Grid dialog.
The three horizontal sliders in the Dimensions area control the size of the arrow. Colors for each
axis of the marker can be set in the Colors area. The arrow style can be set using the Arrow type
selection.
