The ''Redistribute Grid Cells'' dialog indicates the number of ranks (rows, columns or layers) that are selected and allows entering a new number. Entering a new number will cause GMS to increase or decrease the number of ranks. The new ranks are distributed evenly in the selected area and any model boundary conditions are positioned as close to their old locations as possible.

The number of 3D grid rows, columns or layers can be changed via the Redistribute Grid Cells dialog. This dialog is accessed by selecting rows, columns or layers using the Select i, Select j or Select k tools, right-clicking and clicking the Redistribute menu command.

The Redistribute Grid Cells dialog indicates the number of ranks that are selected. The number of ranks equals the number of rows, columns, or layers depending on the tool used for the selection. It also allows entering a new number for the rank. Entering a new number will cause GMS to increase or decrease the number of ranks.
