GRIDDISPLAY (System Variable)

Controls the display behavior and display limits of the grid.

Type: Bitcode
Saved in: Drawing
Initial value: 3

The setting is stored as a bitcode using the sum of the following values:

0

Restricts the grid to the area specified by the LIMITS command

1

Does not restrict the grid to the area specified by the LIMITS command

2

Turns on adaptive grid display, which limits the density of the grid when zoomed out

4

If the grid is set to adaptive display and when zoomed in, generates additional, more closely spaced grid lines in the same proportion as the intervals of the major grid lines

8

Changes the grid plane to follow the XY plane of the dynamic UCS.

Note: Setting 4 is ignored unless setting 2 is specified.
