Thanks for your interest in helping to avoid getting a lot of advice for things I've already tried, here's a quick run-down of what the scene looks like.

• I've tried it paintable and before it's made paintable.
• I've tried different brushes and brush sizes, small and large.
• I've tried painting on different NURBS primitives.
• I've tried altering most if not all the settings in the options. None of the options seem to affect the size of the overal grid. I assumed that it would just fill the surface you have selected at the time.

I'm thinking this must be a bug someone besides me has run into, and it should have an obvious answer.

Thanks again for any help...
