Ah, Stacho.  Two types of grids!
That explains part of my conundrum. Now that I know it exists I'm not sure
what the map atlas grid might be for?

The other relates to the co-ordinate grid; illustrated by the attached pdfs,
scaled at 1:1000.
When specified as 10 10 10 I get nice continuous grids, but when specified
as 50 50 50 or 100 100 100 (and no other changes) I get cross hairs, which
are not too my liking.

These two types of coordinate grids, continuous and cross hairs, are nice
options, but how do I control which type I get?

(The attached include 'map atlas pages grids' as well as 'co-ordinate
grids'.  I can get rid of the former, thanks to your previous post)
