Creating a Custom Column Grid from Linework
You can create a custom column grid based on linework. Since the resulting
grid has a custom shape, the ability to edit it after creation is limited to general
properties and location properties. You cannot change the number or spacing
of grid lines, and neither can automatically label the grid lines.
Custom grid from linework
1 Create the linework you want to convert to a column grid.
2 Open the tool palette that contains the column grid tool you want
to use.
TIP You may have to scroll to display the desired tool. After selecting
it, you can move or hide the Properties palette to expose more of the
drawing area.
3 Right-click a structural column grid tool, and click Apply Tool
Properties to ➤ Linework.
4 Select the linework to convert, and press ENTER.
5 When prompted to erase the original linework, press ENTER to
keep the linework, or enter y (Yes) to erase it.
6 Edit the properties of the column grid in the Properties palette,
if necessary.
