Using grid properties

Set grid properties from the Map View's Grid toolbar. This toolbar is hidden by default, so you will need to select it from the View menu.

To show the Grid toolbar:

Select View > Toolbars > Grid.

The toolbar displays the following commands:

• Snap to the grid. Select this command to display a grid and automatically align objects along the grid when they come within a certain distance of grid points.
• Increase the number of gridlines. This allows you to display more gridlines, letting you place items closer together when using the Snap to the grid command.
• Decrease the number of gridlines. This lowers the number of gridlines on your map view, spacing them further apart when using the Snap to the grid command.
