Three 3ds Max scripts for choosing the grid type and stepping the grid size up or down through presets.

What Grid Spacing Tool does

Grid Spacing Tool by FishMan is a trio of scripts that make grid adjustments faster in 3ds Max. Set Grid Type selects between two grid options, while Increase Grid and Decrease Grid move the grid size up or down through available presets.

The current grid size is displayed in the top right area of the viewport, so you always know the setting. Set Grid Type fits on a toolbar or quad menu, and the other two can be assigned to hotkeys. Installation is by dragging the .ms file into the viewport or through Scripting, Run Script. Helpful for modelers who change snapping scale often.
