Massive grid means I take ages finding my house when zooming in/out
Hi there,

Great tool, love it. I think I accidently created a huge long wall, which has made the grid I'm working on massive. I deleted the wall but the house I'm modelling is now a small part of it and every time I zoom in or out, the plan goes to an empty part of this big map and it takes ages to actually find the house.

How do I get the grid back to being just a bit bigger than the house itself?

Thx, IceCoolMilkyT

Select all, copy then paste in a new document

You may also want to check that you didn't insert accidentally a small object in a very remote location. The program then zooms in on the a point halfway your design and that remote object.

Click in the 2D window and type CTRL-A on the keyboard to highlight all objects in that window.

Thx for the responses guys, much appreciated. I couldn't find the small object so I copied the floors into a new doc. Worked a treat.
