Hello,
I just created this little plugin to help to quickly change the grid step.
Just click on the step value you want and the grid step is immediately changed ; the plugin window can stay opened, and you can also change the step while drawing a polyline (or while other objects drawing)
The item is in the plugins menu.

Grid step are currently fixed, but maybe I'll add a way to edit the value in a further release.
step are 0.10 ; 0.25 ; 0.50 ; 1.00 ; 5.00 for mm (and other except inches)
0.005 ; 0.010 ; 0.025 ; 0.050 ; 0.125 for inches
Feel free to ask me if you want other steps value for inches ; I'm not familiar with this units, and I'm not sure that this settings are the best for inches users :-[
enjoy

Hi David,
This is nice plugin, but from my experience setting for inch 0.01, 0.10, 0.125, 0.1875, 0.25 would do. If this will be difficult, don't worry about it ;) :D

Hi David
Just road tested the plugin on a Win732bit machine works well.
Thx for the effort!.

Hello David. This is a great plugin. Could I request you change the 0.100 and 0.010 to 0.0625 and 0.03125 as I feel that would be more usefull. Thank You in advance and keep up the great work you do.

Hello,
I'll have a look this WE to add more choices .. ;)

You could also add at the start for inches 0.015625 then it would start at 1/64th
I used just inches before the UK went decimal (1971) and still use them today sometimes but it was rare to use 1/10ths most people used the 1/8ths system (1/64, 1/32, 1/16, etc.) maybe we had Binary brains ? ;D
-
Not binary brain, but a number of digit different from ten :-D
Some people count in twenty like some french in with 80 is quatre-vingt, but this is more understandable, but you have to be barefoot.
:-D

Thank You very much David you do some fine work for all of us.

Hey David, a nice tool, and I use it everyday!
What do you think about a flexible input of the grid dimension? I'm often using Cambam for drilling PCBs, and sometimes 0.1mm is too much for corrections on the PCB, so I could go with 0.05 or 0.025 mm. How much work would it be to implement manual inputs? Could you put it on the list? Would be great, thank you! ;D
