To Change Rectangular Layout Grids

Use this procedure to change the angle or size of a rectangular layout grid. You can also change the number and size of the grid bays.

If you use grips to stretch a rectangular layout grid, the behavior of the rectangular layout grid depends on the spacing type of each axis. The overall size of the grid “jumps” in directions that are specified to use a specific bay size with repeat spacing because the exact bay size is maintained. The overall size changes in directions that are specified to be evenly spaced or manually spaced.

1. Double-click one or more 2D layout grids.
2. On the Properties palette, expand Basic, and expand General.
3. Enter a new X width and Y depth value.
4. Select the repeat spacing option and enter a value, or enter a new X and Y bay size value.
