I'd love curved grid lines.
I'd love multi-segmented grid lines.
I wouldn't have thought that segmented grid lines would be cool but my current project has two building wings set at a fixed angle to each other. Each wing has an identical structure.
The engineer designing same said, "I want these grid lines to turn and continue to the other wing so grid line 24 in part B is the same grid line 24 in part C". This way he could dimension one wing and have done both, the old "two birds deal".
Seemed logical, but the only way to do it is to create masking annotation tags and cover up the "24b" grid line I created for the "other" wing. It appears to be the same but I've created an annotation issue to chase if things move or get re-designed. Not much risk now...cause I'm past it but it sure would have been nice.
