To Change Layout Volumes

Use this procedure to change the angle or size of three-dimensional (3D) layout volumes. You can also change the number and size of the grid bays.

If you use grips to stretch a layout volume, the behavior of the layout volume depends on the spacing type of each axis. The overall size of the grid “jumps” in directions that are specified to use a certain 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 3D volume grids.
2. On the Properties palette, expand Basic, and expand General.
3. Enter a new X width, Y depth, and Z height value.
4. Select and change the Layout type option under X Axis, Y Axis, and Z Axis, if necessary, and adjust values for Number of Bays or Bay size, Start offset, and End offset.
