Topic: graft paper image on page

I need help again  I made a few designs years ago using what looks like graft paper  on the page to measure them. I can not for the life of me remember where to select these guides . https://i.postimg.cc/3WNSVhPf/scratching-head-2.gif

Re: graft paper image on page

I assume, since you have posted in the PagePlus section, that you are still using PagePlus, not Affinity.

Are you wanting to create similar guides, or just want to select them in an existing document? If the latter, then perhaps you could attach a sample document. But maybe they are on the (or a) Master Page.

If the former, there are at least a couple of ways to create such a grid. The very simplest, and best, is from the View menu/Grids and Guides/Snapping Grid. It can be customised using Tools/Options/Layout/Snapping.

Ah yes thanks GB easily done just graft guide lines  via grids and guides, not for printing. I`d forgotten how to do it. Interesting vidio Ali. Not ready for Affinity yet is it as easy and good  as pagePlus ?
