Grid Spacing

Hey Devs, Can we have unlimited resolution for arrange view's "show grid line spacing" and "grid snap spacing" added? Right now the smallest spacing possible is 1/256. I can enter smaller fractions like 1/512 and such but the grid in arrange view won't go beyond 1/256. Thank You

Oops.., my bad ;( Thought I was in Feature Request when I posted. If one of the Mods wants to move it.., feel free.

Yes, please move it because I would like to discuss the grid unit and size a bit. Here goes : We need a unit and a number of units for the grid size. :) I need frames. Some folks need BPM. Some need BOTH, such as people working off a video and composing for it. So they probably need the grid to be FRAMES for positioning the video, and then the occasional readout of where they are on the frame grid to access specific spots, or to recut music because the picture was changed, or the director only knows that timecode and not your personal Bars and Beats position in the project. Thus, I think it's a highly decent idea to have multiple rulers, and at least one grid that can be set to any of the rulers with variable unit counts for each ruler type. So on the one hand there's unit type, and on the other there's unit count. Apart from being able to enter the unit count by hand(without delimiting characters, dear programmers, because we, the users, are not programmers), we'll need a bunch of presets to cover the most used values. Unit countsFrames : 0.01 , 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 1 second(frames_per_second-context sensitive!!!) Bars & Beats : all the stuff we already have. Minutes and Seconds : 0.1 seconds, 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes. For complete consistency in design, the nudge window should be designed in a similar fashion at least in terms of unit count. Display in rulerThe problem Reaper starts on the left and puts together arbitrary numbers in equal distances. The result is this crap: And it is crap. It's like making an analog clock that has a marking called 6:13 but no "6" on its own to show 6 o'clock. The Solution Certain rules have to be implemented, and I can tell you right here what they need to be for the frame ruler. Progressivly as the user zooms in, stick to full hour, 30 minute, 15 minute, 10 minute, 5 minute, 1 minute markings, then 30 seconds, 20 seconds, 10 seconds, 5 seconds, 1 second, then 20 frames (for 23.976 to 60 fps), 10 frames, 5 frames, 1 frame, then unmarked subframe grid lines. That's useful and has proven to work. I'll stick that stuff in to an FR if you really need it, but it is it realy that necessary ?

A big +1 on this from me as well, Airon. It's probably my only real annoyance with Reaper.
