To remove specific linework from a custom grid you have created in your AutoCAD layout, you can use the Remove Grid Lines command located on the Layout Grid 2D tab.
This process allows you to select existing linework that is currently part of your custom grid and remove it from the grid's definition without deleting the linework itself from the drawing.
Steps to Remove Specific Linework from a Custom Layout Grid
Follow these steps to remove grid lines using the command described:
- Navigate to the Layout Grid 2D tab on the AutoCAD ribbon.
- Look for the Custom Grid panel within this tab.
- Click the Remove Grid Lines command button.
- When prompted, select the linework in your layout that you want to remove from the custom grid definition.
- Once you have selected all the desired grid lines, press Enter to complete the command.
After executing the command, the selected linework will no longer be considered part of the custom grid. It remains visible in the drawing as standard drawing geometry. If you wish to completely remove this linework from your drawing, you can select it and delete it separately after using the Remove Grid Lines command.
This method is specifically for managing lines that have been added to a custom grid definition, rather than controlling the display of the standard grid dots or lines in a viewport or paper space.
