Grid Labeling Options Form

Use the Grid Labeling Options form to specify the labeling sequence for grid lines in individual uniform grid systems.

• X/R Grid

• Beginning X/R ID edit box and Label Left to Right and Label Right to Left options. Use the edit box to specify the label for the first grid line along the X/R axis. "A" is the default designation. Then choose if the labeling will start on the left-hand side of the model and proceed to the right-hand side, or start on the right-hand side and proceed to the left-hand side. Label Left to Right is the default.

• Y/T Grid

• Beginning Y/T ID edit box and Label Bottom to Top and Label Top to Bottom options. Use the edit box to specify the label for the first grid line along the Y/T axis. "1" is the default designation. Then choose if the labeling will start at the bottom of the model and proceed upward, or start at the top of the model and proceed downward. Bottom to Top is the default.

TIP:  By default, the grid line IDs are shown in hexagonal shaped "bubbles." The location of the bubbles and the IDs shown in them for display and printing purposes are not changed using this command, but instead can be changed using  options on the Grid System Data form. Changing the bubble location can be useful so that the bubbles/IDs for different systems do not overlap.

Access the Grid Labeling Options form as follows:

1. Click the File menu > New Model command and initialize a new model to access the New Model Quick Templates form.
