DrawGrid : Object

Draws grid lines on a UserView for plotting
Source: Grid.sc

Description

DrawGrid is used by Plotter to draw the grid lines on a graph. It can however also be used to draw GridLines on any UserView and could even be used to add grid lines to UserViews behind sliders or in any GUI.

Note that DrawGrid does not hold any reference to the UserView but is meant to have its .draw method called inside of the UserView's drawFunc. It only needs to know what bounds the grid lines should be drawn within and what the horizontal and vertical GridLines are.
