Grid Tool by SU Team
-
Does anyone know if there is a way to keep the grid that is created by the "Grid" tool (downloaded from Extension Warehouse) from being deleted when the delete guidelines tool is used? I like to work with grids, guidelines and points. There are times when deleting the lines and points are required to clean up the clutter, but the grid would still be handy if it could remain.
Thoughts?
Suggestions? -
I haven't used that tool but have you tried making the grid a group and lock that group ?

Look at TIGs WorkPlane. generated as a locked object. I don't think it is subject to the Delete Guides command.

The grid plane is automatically grouped. I locked it and it was still subject to deletion. I hid the grid and still it would delete. So then I created a layer called grid, placed it on that layer, turned said layer off, and it was still deleted.@mitcorb
I'll look into that, and report backThanks both for the replies

I checked out the work plane plugin by TIG. Impressive, but unless I'm doing something incorrectly, gridlines are still subject to a universal delete when the delete guides option is executed (even when locked. A face remains, which is locked, but no grid lines.

Before you Edit > Delete Guides copy or cut the Grid to your clipboard. Then Edit > Delete Guides followed by Paste in Place
