How can I create a 3D-grid in 3DS Max?

I have been trying to develop a 3D data-visualization software, and now I need to find a way of quickly generating 3D grids in 3DS Max to use like a 3d-chart reference scale-map. I am new 开发者_如何学Goto 3DS but it is what I use to generate the objects I work with on the engine.

Is there any simple way of generating such "cage"?

Thank you.

3ds Max has "grid" helper objects that should serve your purpose.

See "Autodesk 3ds Max Help > Precision and Drawing Aids > Helpers > Standard Helper Objects > Grid Helper" in the user help.

Programmatically you can create and manipulate grid helper objects using MAXScript with the "grid" command. Search the MAXScript help for "grid".
