Using Grids and Guides
The grid consists of evenly spaced points that you can use to align objects to each other or to
the sides of a scene.
Guides are vertical or horizontal lines in the Composite window to help you position or align
objects relative to each other and to the edges of the viewable area.
Grids and guides are not visible in the final sequence.
To create a grid:
1. Select Window > Show Grids and Guides Palette.
The Options Palette open to the Grids and Guides tab.
2. Enter the number of grid cells and the sensitivity.
Snap Sensitivity X and Snap Sensitivity Y set the sensitivity of the Snap to Grid and
Guide features on the horizontal and vertical axes, respectively. Higher values increase
sensitivity, causing the snap features to affect objects farther from the guides or grid.
3. Select the Snap to Grid checkbox or Snap to Guides checkbox to align objects
automatically with grid or guide lines when positioning in the Composite window.
To show or hide the grid:
t Select Preview > Mark > Grid.
