veranth Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I'm using Vectorworks 2015 and when I set the snap grid spacing to 0.025" and the reference grid spacing to 0.1" or smaller the grid displays on screen at 0.2" no matter how much I zoom in. How do I get a smaller reference grid spacing to display? Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 why do you need such a small reference grid spacing? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted November 3, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 3, 2014 This is determined by your Unit settings. Most likely under File > Document Settings > Units, you have the rounding precision at 0.1 or something similar, if you change it to .00001 for example, you will start to see the differences in the rulers, but you will need to set this higher the more you want to zoom in. If you are zooming in really far (more than 5000%) then you may need to set this rounding precision to an even smaller amount. Quote Link to comment
veranth Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Problem solved. I need the small grid because I'm working on small (smd) parts. I was in top view instead of wireframe, and as soon as I switched the grids became smaller. Quote Link to comment
