 Hello,


I recently noticed that the Workspace /Scene Ground grids do not align with the units for the geometry. E.g when I set the grid parameters like:


TileCount 200

Zoom 50


and then place a 1 unit cube in its very center I would expect that the edges align exactly with the grid lines. But they don't the cube appears to be slightly bigger. In model view this looks okay.


Is there a setting, e.g. like units somewhere that has to be adjusted or is it a bug.


Thanks


Da Dude

Hi DudeMeister,

I remember that this was discussed when 7.5 came out. There is a reason for it and I can't remember now, but hopefully one of the others can speak up with the math that lets you set the grid to align with the world units... ;)
