affinity publisher 2, show grid doesn't work properly.

Show grids has not been working consistently. Currently not at all. A search of the forum shows nothing . . . any ideas?

In V2, unlike in V1 the default "automatic" grid is always a 1x1 px grid (so not really automatic, at least in the same dynamic sense it was in V1). Consequently, if you use the V2 default unless you zoom in very far you won't see it.

So instead, I suggest setting it to any of the other spacings or presets, like maybe 64 X 64 px, & see if you can now see the grid at more usual zoom sizes.

Somehow the <show grid> under <Grid and Axis> became unchecked . . . . go figure . . .

That only applies to APhoto in V2
