As Etienne says, I'm working on the grid overlay plugin which can be found at his github repo: https://github.com/etiennesky/gridoverlay
My motivation is for the collection of archaeological geophysics data, mostly resistivity and magnetometry. This data is usually collected in a regular but arbitrary grid, so a grid overlay is ideal for referencing large surveys. It's in a working state, and fairly bug-free, so feel free to download it and have a go. It supports OTF projection, so you can create a grid in one projection and display it in another. I'm open to suggestions for features and improvements if it becomes popular. -JD > > John Donovan is working on a more flexible plugin to draw complex > grids - see the above thread also > > > Etienne > > On Thu, Jul 5, 2012 at 7:35 AM, Nathan Woodrow <[email protected]> wrote: >> Just been playing with the new grid decoration.
