<div>Is there a way to get line grids to appear that would function like the PointGrid layer? Graticule is close, but does not meet my needs due to it being locked to the coordinate system. I need to be able to draw grids based upon user selected sizes and angles and PointGrid seems to do the job for me except that it only renders points rather than lines.</div>
