Description

Creates 2-dimensional rectangular and radial grids.

Method

Specify the first point of the grid, then move the cursor to see a preview of the grid.

Set the line offset values through the Command line options or by clicking the Tab key to use the dynamic dimensions.

Click or press Enter to create the grid.

A BIM Block component (a block reference with BIM properties) of the Grid BIM entity type is created.

Important: BIM Blocks are compatible with BricsCAD® V26 and later. Drawings with BIM Blocks can be opened with older BricsCAD® versions. However, when inserting BIM Blocks in BricsCAD® V25 or older, they lose their BIM data.
