How to Make a Grid Larger in Maya
Maya is one of the most powerful 3-D modeling and CGI animation applications on the market. It is often used in the production of movies, television shows and video game content. As you might expect with such a versatile program, Maya is complex and has a steep learning curve. One of the reasons for this is that many of the features of the program can be adjusted to the user's needs. For example, if you are working in Maya, you may decide that you would like to increase the size of the background grid so that you can better see it. Fortunately, this is not that hard to do after you know how.
