Show or hide the work plane grid

Work plane represents the local coordinate system of the Tekla Structures model. The work plane also has its own dark red grid, which can be used for positioning parts.

You can show or hide the work plane grid as needed. The work plane grid is hidden by default. Use the options on the Snapping toolbar to show or hide the work plane grid.

  1. To show the work plane grid, on the Snapping toolbar, select Work plane from the second list.

  2. To hide the work plane grid, select View plane from the same list.
  3. If you want to change the work plane grid color, use the XS_​GRID_​COLOR_​FOR_​WORK_​PLANE advanced option.
