To Remove Grid Lines From Layout Grids

Use this procedure to remove individual grid lines from a grid. You can separately remove grid lines from the X plane and the Y plane.

Note: You can remove lines only from grids that have been inserted with manually spaced lines or evenly spaced lines. Layout grids with lines placed at a fixed repeated spacing value cannot be changed. For information about grid modes, see Changing the Spacing Mode of Layout Grids.
  1. Select the layout grid, and:
    If you want to remove a grid line from… Then…
    the X plane of the grid click Layout Grid 2D tabX Axis panelRemove Grid Line. Then proceed to next step.
    the Y plane of the grid click Layout Grid 2D tabY Axis panelRemove Grid Line. Then proceed to next step.
    a custom grid that was created by applying tool properties to linework click Layout Grid 2D tabCustom Grid panelRemove Grid Lines. Then select the linework to be removed, and press Enter. The linework remains visible in the drawing but is no longer part of the grid. You can select it and delete it if desired.
  2. Click the grid line to be removed from the grid.
    • If you have removed a line from a layout grid with manually spaced lines, the specified line is removed from the grid. The position of the other lines remains unchanged.
    • If you have removed a line from a layout grid with evenly spaced lines, the specified line is removed from the grid. All remaining lines are recalculated, so that they are evenly distributed again.
