stubborndog Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I am driven crazy by this. I do a very repetitive job for a client that involves lining up two parallel items. I have made a custom 512 pixel grid for my 2048 pixel window. Great EXCEPT Each new window I need to select the custom grid or I get the automatic one. Am I missing something or do the coders not think we ever do repetitive work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Have you tried creating a preset in the Grid Manager and using that?

ianrb Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 just question I was going to ask I have made several grid presets in inches (pixels meaning nothing to me How do I set one of my presets as the default when I open grid lines with Ctrl + " ATM I always get 0.104 inch x 1 division 🤬 Any other suggests would be appreciated cheers -- keep safe up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrqwak Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Is there no option to change the default grid size? It seems, every time I open a new image or create a new document, I need to apply my own custom grid, in order to get the grid I want (and I want the same grid for all the images I'm editing). It's just one of many features I find missing, to the detriment of Affinity Photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianrb Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 You can make your own presets >View >Grid + Axis management I have a macro to set inches --- I could like have a grid size in the same macro Built into my "start" macro I have 1x2 grid -- there also presets for 1x3 and 1x4 . Turn grid on/off short cut is Ctrl + " -- not sure if that is default or mine Works for me, but I'm editing photo mostly and make basic collages Hope that helps; your questions welcome .
