Grid.

Number of cell rows across the height. The capture shows 12. Higher values create more horizontal divisions; lower values make cells coarser. This is a structural parameter, not an alternative to Zoom.

CheckJudge it with Column Cells and frame aspect ratio; visually square cells are not determined by one number alone.

Number of columns across the width. The capture shows 20. The Row/Column pair defines topology; Width/Height can later stretch the already-built cells deliberately.

CheckDo not compensate for the wrong column count with Zoom; fix structure first.

Defines the repeating major-line interval — every nth line. The capture shows 4. This controls accent frequency, while Major Line Width independently controls accent thickness.

CheckAn overly frequent major interval destroys hierarchy because nearly every line starts to look important.

Line color via swatch and eyedropper. White in the capture is only the current state. For a guide over bright footage, choose a readable color first and leave Global Blend for final effect intensity.

CheckIf the grid disappears only over part of the shot, changing color may be more precise than globally increasing width.

Thickness of regular horizontal lines. The capture shows 0.050. Independence from vertical width lets you weaken one axis, build a scanline-like pattern, or compensate visual weight after plane deformation.

CheckCheck very thin lines in motion and at delivery resolution; resizing and compression can introduce aliasing or flicker.

Thickness of regular vertical lines. The capture also shows 0.050. Independent control is useful after Yaw when vertical and horizontal lines no longer read with equal density or weight.

CheckHorizontal and vertical widths do not need to match; equal numbers do not guarantee equal appearance after a transform.

Thickness of the lines selected by Major Line Spacing. The capture shows 2.500, much heavier than regular lines. The combination of spacing + width creates coordinate hierarchy.

CheckIf major lines look like separate bands, reduce their width before changing the entire Row/Column density.

Horizontal offset of the grid plane without changing cell counts. Useful for aligning a vertical division to an object or keyframing overlay motion.

CheckIf position is the only problem, avoid unnecessary Shear/Pitch/Yaw because they complicate later revisions.

Vertical offset of the plane in the shown control set. Together with Pan it places the completed grid without changing topology or scale.

CheckDo not confuse Tilt here with Pitch: Pitch changes plane orientation, while Tilt is used as a position control.

Uniform scale of the already-built grid. Row/Column counts remain logically the same while cells occupy more or less of the frame.

CheckZoom is the general scale control; it does not replace Width/Height when a non-uniform fit is required.

Rotation of the grid in the image plane. This is a 2D rotation: it changes angle but does not by itself create a receding surface.

CheckFor a floor, wall or side display, start with Pitch/Yaw and use Rotate only for final roll-like alignment.

Independent horizontal scale. It changes cell aspect and helps fit the procedural plane to a wide surface without rebuilding Column Cells.

CheckIf cells need to look physically square, Width cannot be judged separately from Height and frame aspect ratio.

Independent vertical scale. It works with Width as non-uniform scaling and is useful when fitting the grid to a screen or surface with unusual proportions.

CheckDo not correct Height by changing Row Cells; they operate at different layers: topology versus geometry.

Affine skew on X. Rectangular cells become parallelograms while remaining an affine transform without full perspective convergence.

CheckShear is useful for stylized technical graphics but is not a replacement for Pitch/Yaw on a surface that should recede in depth.

Affine skew on Y. Combined with ShearX it quickly builds slanted technical layouts or pre-fits the shape before perspective-style orientation.

CheckLarge ShearX/Y values quickly reduce cell readability; re-check major-line hierarchy after skewing.

Perspective-style forward/backward plane tilt. This is often the control that makes a flat grid read as a floor, road or horizontal surface receding from camera.

CheckStrong Pitch compresses thin lines in the distance, so check aliasing in motion.

Perspective-style left/right plane rotation. Useful for side displays, walls and oblique surfaces, especially together with Pitch and Pan/Tilt.

CheckAfter Yaw, apparent horizontal and vertical density changes asymmetrically; revisit line widths if one axis becomes too heavy.

Final dry/wet of the entire effect against the node input. The capture shows 1.000. It attenuates the completed Grid as a whole and does not change Row/Column counts, line widths or transforms.

CheckIf the problem is only overly strong lines, check Line Color and widths first; use Blend for overall mix, not to hide a poor grid design.
