Comments
When one of the toggle buttons use x grid, use y grid, or use z grid is active, the grid will be redrawn on the screen in the new layout; otherwise nothing will be visible until one of those toggle buttons is selected.
The grid layout is generated in relation to the window on the screen. The grid width value is used to divide the window width into (a grid width number of) portions. The unit values are then used to generate a (grid width divided by grid unit) number of points on the screen in the respective windows (default 20 points).
