[Qgis-user] Graticules

[Agustin Lobo]

Carson,

This is actually almost perfect and I do confirm that works
in the projection being defined for the project.
The only improvement would be that once you select "Input Boundary 
Layer" you should get the actual values written  in the X,Y fields
of "Input Coordinates". In this way, the user could then select "Input
coordinates" to slightly modify the values (you normally want
the grid at rounded positions).
Thanks a lot

Agus
