Sketch Display Options

(Show Grid)	Controls how the grid is displayed in the sketch plane. Click this icon to choose the behavior of the sketch grid in the Grid Display Options dialog. Show bounded grid displays the grid in a stationary box. Show un-bounded grid causes the grid to snap to the edges of the 3D-CAD View scene when you zoom into the scene. Hide grid hides the grid from the scene. These options are stored in each sketch. When you edit or resume a sketch, these settings are maintained. When the grid is too dense (due to the zoom level or grid spacing settings), the grid becomes hidden.
(Snap to Grid)	Controls whether the mouse pointer snaps to intersections in the grid lines. This option is activated by default. When the grid is turned off, the mouse pointer still snaps to it. This option is stored in each sketch. When you edit or resume a sketch, these settings are maintained.
(Show/Hide Relations)	Controls whether the dimension markers, constraint glyphs, or the smart interaction features are displayed in the 2D sketch. See Showing/Hiding Relations. For details about smart interaction while sketching, see Creating a Sketch.
(View Normal to Sketch Plane)	Aligns the view so that it is normal to the sketch plane. The sketch plane appears automatically when in sketch mode and displays the local axes of the sketch plane and the sketch plane origin. Use this feature to re-align the view after rotating or panning the view.
(Set Sketch Grid Spacing)	Controls the distance between gridlines on the sketch plane. In the Grid Spacing dialog, enter a value (with units) for Grid Spacing to control the spacing of the major grid lines. Number of Fine Grid Divisions controls the number of divisions between each major grid line. Model dimensions in 3D-CAD must not exceed 10,000 m. Setting large values for grid spacing (>100 m) can result in errors when creating sketch entities.
(Show Status of Sketch Primitives)	Controls whether the status of the sketch primitives is shown in the sketch. See Viewing the Status of Sketch Primitives.
(Pick on Plane)	Controls the placement of points and sketch entities on sketch planes. When deactivated, you cannot place sketch entities on sketch planes. This option only applies when sketching in 3D and is designed to help you drawn on surfaces using the Line on Surface and Spline on Surface 3D sketch tools. See 3D Sketch Entity.
(Pick on Geometry)	Allows you to create points on a plane or geometry. When activated, 3D-CAD highlights the entities on the geometry when the mouse pointer hovers over them to create a point.
(Show or Hide Triad)	Controls whether the triad is displayed in the 3D sketch. The triad only applies when sketching in 3D and allows you to move selected sketch entities along the X, Y, and Z directions. See Creating Sketches in 3D.
