If you set a size for all axes at once, you display a uniform, square-based, grid. However, you can also use different values on any of the three axes to display a non-uniform, rectangular-based, grid. By default, the grid is set to a uniform size of 1 on all axes.
You can also use the Grid size field in the Grid and Snap to set a uniform grid size without opening the Snapping menu.
To resize the grid:
In the Grid and Snap overlay, select the arrow next to the Grid Snapping button to open the Snapping menu.
To enter a uniform value for the grid size and make all grid lines the same length:
Select the link icon in the Size property.
Enter a value for the X property to set the size of the grid lines on all axes.
To enter non-uniform values for the grid size and specify the size of each grid axis separately:
Make sure that the link icon in the Size property is not selected.
Enter a value for the X, Y, and Z properties to set the size of the grid lines on each axis.
