Small grid setting helps dimension snaps

I'd like to thank Scott (dshall) for a little insight that I believe will make dimensioning much easier and faster after watching his video on wall snaps. He sets the grid to 1/4" intervals. That seems to be the key to alleviating the frustration of trying to get the dimensions to go to the layer you want (and when CA decides you didn't mean it when you say dimension to a certain layer!). Now I can easily go to the next layer 1/4" away rather than fight CA to get it to snap to the layer I want. I have wasted hours doing that and I see others have also commented on this for years now.

Scott, do you have a video that talks about your settings for various things like this 1/4" grid setting? I, for one, would find it very informative to see what a long time expert of CA uses.

Many thanks, Cathy

I can't think of any videos off hand. When X6 comes out I will probably do something along those lines exploring what's new.

I also use 1/4" b/c it makes since, and you really don't need anything smaller, plus Chief says a 1/128 requires that Chief do all those extra decimal places in the model witch also slows it down.
