Ultiboard grid spacing shortcuts

I'm laying out a mixture of through hole and SMD components (with Ultiboard 10.1).

 

I would like to toggle between mil and mm grids; and switch rapidly between grid spacings eg: 100mil -> 50mil -> 25mil -.> etc.

 

Apart from assigning a shortcut to the PCB Options dialog I can't find any way of doing this with just one or two keystrokes.  It's a bit of a song and dance.

 

Any thoughts please?

Hi Bob,

 

From the main menu select Options>>Customize User Interface, highlight "Draw Settings" under the "Categories" and there should be a "Select Unit" options under the "Commands" column, you can place this shortcut icon on your toolbar.  Uf you want to switch between 10 mil >>50 Mil grid you have to do it in the Options>>PCB Properties>>Grid and Units.

 

I will create a feature request for this option.
