A grid frame is an outline showing where a grid will be created. The grid frame can be used to create a grid at a particular location, size and orientation. The Feature Objects | New Grid Frame command is used to create the grid frame. When the Map → 3D Grid command is selected, the grid will be created using the grid frame.

The Grid Frame tool File:Grid frame tool.gif can be used to move, size and rotate the grid frame. Double clicking on the grid frame will bring up the Grid Frame Properties dialog which can also be used to move, size and rotate the grid frame.


Displaying the Grid Frame

The display of the grid frame can be turned on or off by checking (unchecking) the toggle next to the Grid Frame in the Project Explorer or by using the Grid Frame option in the Feature Objects Display Options dialog.
