Title Block Grids

[Stephanie Poole]

Why isn't there an option to Display the Title Block Grids, but not print them when you publish?

The drawing grid has two check boxes, one each for "Show Grid" and "Print Grid." They each can be checked, or unchecked.

I'd like to see an option for this, or have the ability to toggle the title block grid on and off globally. Hey, I'd even settle for a check box on the object info pallet when you select a tile block object to be able to toggle the title block grid on and off on an object by object basis. 

Yes, you can right click on a title block object to Show Grids. But when the grids are shown, there is no contextual menu item to turn the grids off. 

Or, just like there is a pull-down to hide and show guides, why can't we have a Hide Title Block Grids and a Show Title Block Grids pull down?

Or am I just missing a command someplace in my Workspace?

Just to be clear, I am talking about the blue dashed grid lines.

The contextual right-click menu has a Show Grids, but it was grayed out when I tried it. I had to Convert to Unstyled in the Object Info Palette. Once I converted the title block object, I could use the contextual menu to Show Grids. A check box appears next to the menu command. When I select it again, the check box goes away. However, this does not control the blue dashed grid lines. It only toggles on and off the Grid Line Extensions in the margin, and the "Grids" (grid letters and numbers).

Hello @Stephanie Poole,

 

There are some improvements planned for the title block border that might address your request. Anyway, I will add this to our wishlist database so that it can be considered.
