3D GRID is in the way

I would really like to be able to disable the 3D grid that appears on an OPEN GL view. It is difficult to edit otherwise.

Hey Dennis,
I have added a couple of notes to Nando's image to explain a little more.

Big cheers to you again Barry!
It appears that my view menu is missing a few of the items comparing to your attachment at the base of the View drop-down but I have just added in the "editing plane display" to it and it works fine thank you. Is there such a thing as a standard menu format like how yours is set up? I haven't gone there since I installed this V15 and have only used the default drop-down menus.

Mine is a custom work environment too and is a little different again from Nando's.

When a new version comes out I tend to use the work environment I was happy with from the previous version and then compare it side by side with the new standard work environment (2 Archicads running - even better on 2 machines right next to each other).
Then I add in any new features I think will be handy and save that as my new work environment.

Yep I think it might be better for me to throw everything into the menus and ulliminate one by one. At least I will have them on screen to try out as I'm working along. It's a mmmmonster program but a good one. Now, if only I can find some quality time for really getting to know my little mate
One day I'll return the favour (s) Barry - cheers
