Grid Plane Level...
Hey there,

so what about the 'Grid Plane Level' setting?
What is that good for?

I was under the impression that this is a helper option to snap/insert
objects to a different elevation level than ground,
but it seems it doesn't do anything...

So I wonder what the purpose of this option is?

Thanks,
tL.

When you place a new object, it's default position will be there.
When you do align to terrain, without any terrain, object position will be there.
And also works as a visual helper.

Ah ok, I see. Thanks.
Maybe someday it would make sense to extend this to the
"+1" object insertion/duplication as well...

But even this:
Quote:When you place a new object, its default position will be there.

doesn't seem to work when terrain is present
under the actual 'Grid Plane Level'), but only if the "space" underneath is blank.
Probably there is no way around that, right?

"+1" object copying works the same, as long as you don't have terrain.

Alright, I thought I checked without terrain, probably didn't.
Thanks.
