Tried using the Business->Charts and Graphs -> Charting Shapes -> Grid to display a grid pattern on a floor diagram I am making. However, even though I edit it to contain more than 10 columns, it will not display more than 10 columns. Has anyone come up with a shape to display a grid?
What's wrong with the page grid pattern? You can set it to be exact increments if desired. Access it via ribbon>View>Show.
To create a shape there are 3 methods:
1) draw a shape with fixed size and line spacing
2) create smart shape. I didn't check the shape you found, but suspect it similar. Problem with making "smart" shape, each grid pattern requires a separate geometry section in shapesheet. There are a couple different methods. But ultimately, max number of lines is set by how shapesheet is setup.
3) create a macro that will draw shape based upon input parameters.
