5141 change layout grid

[stuso]

Hi there, i'd like to change my grid quickly mid layout so i tried
these env varibales:

envSetVal( "layout" "xSnapSpacing" 'float 0.26)
envSetVal( "layout" "ySnapSpacing" 'float 0.26)

this does not seem to have any effect? Am i changing the wrong
variables?

Thanks

Stu

These are used to seed the xSnapSpacing on the window when it is opened. So what
you need is:

hiGetCurrentWindow()~>xSnapSpacing=0.26
hiGetCurrentWindow()~>ySnapSpacing=0.26
