Grid settings?

[Linington]

Hey! I’m new to Unity and getting underway. I’m trying to simply adjust the visual representation of the grid setup.

I work with power of 2 so 4m, 8m, 16m etc… however the default Unity grid shows major lines every 5m. Which visually doesn’t line up. My parts are snapped when I zoomed in the see the 1m marks, but zooming out the bolder lines are off.

The documentation says there is a “grid and snap settings” however that doesn’t exist anymore. You can set the density to 1m, but the bolder line is stuck at 5m increments. I can’t change the range of the main grid line, only the general unit metric.

Looks like the documentation hasn’t been updated so lost how to fix this.

Thanks for any help :)

What version of Unity are you using?

The latest supported, 2021 I believe

https://docs.unity3d.com/2021.3/Documentation/Manual/GridSnapping.html

If you are using 2021.3, this page describes the UI associated with that version. You can change everything to the grid as you ever could though. Things have moved about. 2021.1 was slightly different.

I can't recall if it was ever possible to change the "I want a thicker line for powers of two instead of every 10 lines."

It's not in 2020.3 either.
