1. The document provides instructions for creating a gridline structure in PDMS. It involves creating a site, zone, and structure, then defining the gridline reference data by specifying horizontal, vertical, and elevation gridlines with unique keys and positions. 2. Gridlines are built by inserting horizontal and vertical gridline keys and positions sequentially. Elevation levels can also be defined. 3. The display of gridlines can be configured by tagging elevation ranges and setting line colors before adding them to the PDMS design model.
