Title: What are people using these days to add XY and Lat Lon grids to their viewports?
Post by: RemoteDrafter on November 27, 2018, 12:26:12 PM
I've recently left a 10 year job where we had custom routines and now have a shiny new install of C3D 2019. I'm needing to make survey asbuilts and was wondering what everyone was using. I cruised the search functions but quickly got too far in to the swamp I think lol.

Thanks in advance :)

I think if you search in dynamic blocks section you might find a block for such a grid

Otherwise....use that suggestion to build one for yourself
