I’m am trying to add “minor ticks” to the X-axis and Y-axis and cannot seem to find it. Does ParaView have this feature?

I have the same issue. From [this](https://blog.kitware.com/new-in-paraview-axes-grid-annotation/) post, it seems like the earlier version had it, but not the current version. Is this still the case?

What I would like:

To the best of my knowledge, the answer is no, the current version dos not implement minor ticks.As you reference, you could in an earlier version of the Axis Grid, but it was replaced many years ago. The old axis grid never worked correctly, fonts were hard to read and not facing the user, numbers were written on top of each other. Our current Axis Grid is a huge improvement.
