[REQUEST] A grid in the layout...

Hello,

is it possible to have, in a future release of C2, a grid drawn in the layout? Obviuosly with the possibility to show/hide the grid, set the grid size, etc.

This because often I need (and I hope someone needs too) to position objects to certain distances and it should be very useful to have a grid to put objects very quickly using grid lines as reference.

Actually I have to do it by eye or using the "snap to grid" that, for me, isn't so efficient like it should be a grid.

Thanx,

Steven

I will sign the petition... this would be really helpful :)

Grid and rulers for the win!

For the moment, you can add a Sprite, which consists of a bitmap grid. Don't forget to delete it before export ;).

This has been on the todo list for ages, I'll try bump it up.

+1 for Grids, Rulers & Alignment Tools.

+1, it�s very useful specially for layouts with many objects

Why is this not a feature!? They have snap to grid but you can't SEE the grid? haha

Ooooh Yeah, this would be a massive help! Also having a way to paint the current selected sprite is sorely missed. Maybe by using a modifier key(shift?) and left click dragging in the layout would be great.

YES! I get all paranoid about things not lining up and spend waaaaay too much time obsessing about this, so a grid would be awesome! Please <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

This is what I do for the time being as well. Always figured a visible grid was on the to-do list. happy to know it got a bump up said list.

Visible grid Plus the ability to tab through fields in the property and ribbon menu. And I think My workflow would be about perfect.

I would like to see a toggle visible grid feature as well :)

Hansi - it's already supported in r123.

This would be great! And maybe an align option that does both vertical and horizontal at the same time.

E2GameStudios the visible grid option was added this week, and it snaps to when you click and drag the object anywhere on the screen when snap to grid is enabled.
