Creating Grid-Anchored Columns with User-Specified Settings
Use this procedure to anchor a column to a grid as you create it, with property
settings that you specify. The style specified in the tool provides the column
shape. When you specify an insert point on the grid, the shape is extruded in
a positive direction along the current UCS Z-axis to a height determined by
the Start offset, End offset, and Logical length properties of the tool.
To create a column grid with pre-anchored columns, see Creating a Column
Grid.
