Window allows you to modify parameters of the grid on
the map. You can:
- Select UTM grid, lat/long graticule, both, or
neither.
- Select grids to show
- Primary datum grid.
- Secondary datum grid will be
plotted. The datum for the main grids is selected in the
Options
form (Datum tab). The secondary datum only can be changed on
this form. To change the primary datum you must close the
map window, select the new primary datum in the Options
from (Datum tab) and then reopen the map window.
- Native grid: for a DEM that uses an external projection
file, such as UK OS grid or
SPCS
DEMs.
- UTM grid settings
- Pick the maximum screen pixel size for the UTM grid, in meters. If
you want something at much smaller scales, use
Map projection zone
options.
- Grid spacing.
- Lat/long graticule settings
- Labels inside map. This will use less space for the map compared
to putting in the margin, but can overprint important map information.
- Pick grid color and line weight for primary and
secondary grids;
- Pick intervals for both of the grids.
- Change secondary datum.
- Label KML--create a point shapefile, as a separate layer, with grid
labels for KML export.
- Short UTM: the labels can either be the full UTM, or just the two digit
short form. The short form might be more legible on the Google Earth
display.
- KML export: exports grid/graticule to Google Earth.
