Axes interval panel

Either an annotated Grid or a pair of X/Y axes can be displayed.

  • Grid
    Like a coordinate grid in a 3D window, the grid is an underlay that cannot be edited and its labels cannot be printed. A grid is removed using the Analyse > Grid > Remove option.
  • Axes
    Axes to create two annotated axes as an 'object' with text that can be both edited and printed as hardcopy. These axes are deleted on return to plan view.

Both the horizontal and vertical interval need to be specified, as well as the From/To and colour for the axes.

Select OK.

The annotated grid or axes is then displayed. To return to Plan view in the 3D window use the Plan View option.
