How do I set up the grid in EO Edit

Setting up a grid in the background of your workspace can help you to align text with designs and quickly determine the size of designs or letters. To turn on the grid feature of the Lettering and Editing systems, follow the directions below.

  1. Click on the TOOLS drop down menu at the top of the window.
  2. From the drop down list, click on OPTIONS.
  3. When the Options window opens, click on the GRID TAB
  4. The first choice is for STYLE. You may choose Line, Plus, Cross or Point. Click the arrow next to the Style and click on your choice from the menu.
  5. The next setting is for the separation, or size of the squares in the grid. Click in the box and type in the size of the grid squares you want. Example: 1.0 for one inch, .50 for one half inch, etc.
  6. Next, you can choose the position of the grid. Below places the grid behind the design. Above will place the grid on top of the design. That is, the grid lines will be visible on top of the design.
  7. Color will let you select the color of the grid lines.
  8. Finally, check the box for SHOW GRID to have the grid display on the workspace. NOTE: the hot key for toggling the grid on and off is CTRL + G.
