# Displaying Grid Planes and Grid Loading
# Grid planes
The following options are available for displaying grid planes in Graphic Views.
- The grid is displayed on the current grid plane.
- The Labels and Display Methods | Display Methods dialog ‘Draw current grid panels’ option displays panels on the current grid plane.
# Grid loading
Grid loading may be displayed as diagrams. Grid Area Loads may also be contoured.
If the current grid plane is not ‘Global’ then only loads that are applied to the current grid plane are displayed.
Loads are not displayed on invalid panels. Use the Draw current grid panels option to verify that panels are valid for the grid plane to which the loads are applied.
