Is it possible to change the orientation of the grid?  I'm trying to determine the y axis coordinates along the surface of an object at specific points.  Trying to place an object and move it is a pain in the butt.  Using the mouse to click and drag is darn near impossible.  Locking the object and flying it is almost as bad.  If I could see a vertical grid I could just get close and count blocks.

If you mean what I think you mean,

drawing an XY, XZ, or YZ grid with an arbitrary (user-adjusted or inputted) third coordinate value, instead of the standard XZ with Y = 0,

I don't know of an easy way to do it, but I think it is a great idea and that it should be implemented.



You might be able to do it (sort of) by selecting EVERYTHING and rotating it, then translating the stuff. This might not work for all object types (I'm thinking waypoints/nodes), so you might have to transform it back afterwards. Also you have to have the correct rotation mode selected.

Thanks.  Looked everywhere for it.  Must have looked right at it and it didn't register.  I thought there was something though since I'm pretty sure I did it by accident once years ago.  That is definitely going to make things quite a bit easier and that X level option will make it super easy.
