Blue background, grid... where did it come from and how do I turn it off?

Hello, 

somehow we managed to turn on a 12' blue grid background on a view. If I create a new view with same parameters from scratch we don't see this. What is this and how is it controlled please?

Set Work Plane to Show.

Really cool too is Grid Spacing.

ok, thanks very much. I've been using Revit for three years, first time I've interacted with that control.. My new guy must have clicked it by accident.

Ever use Work Pane Viewer? I've only recently incorporated it into my workflow.  Love it. Keep the Work Plane on in the Viewer and off in the View.  FWIW.

Workplane is a great tool should you work on a non orthogonal layout, sort of like UCS or SNAPANG in AutoCAD.
