I've been using maya since 4.0 and have used grids to help scale. I used grid on axis and edge depending where the item is and angle. Recently after installing 6 on a new machine with same video card ATI RAGE pro. I have been unable to get Ortho views to show numbers. Persp is showing them, but not in ortho. I'e tried everything I can think of including changing from cm to foot and grid values i.e. length,grid lines every, subdivisions.
I've turned grids off/on globally and by panes.

Any ideas appreciated.
