Construction grid display in section/elevation

Barry Kelly

I don't remember reading any posts on this.
Has anyone noticed that when creating a new section/elevation, the construction grid shows even though it has been set not to display in the plan.
Is it just another annoying bug or am I missing a setting somewhere?
It has nothing to do with the grid tool settings in the section properties.
Using the latest hotfix for the AUS version (but has happened in all other hotfixes as well).

Yes, this is very annoying.
Even when show grid is off, it turns itself on when a s/e is created.

Is there a setting in the work environment or elsewhere that I've missed?

No - I'm sure it's a bug. After working on bigger files I get just half a grid appearing in the top half of my window.
