Hi there,

please help me: my basline grid's not showing 😕😕

I've tried to activate baseline grid in my panel... doesn't work.

I've tried to adjust the view threshold... doesn't work either.

I've made sure that my view mode is set to 'Normal'... which it is.

What to do? Thx in advance.

Hi Michael,

does the grid show up on an empty page?

Could be that the grid is drawn behind objects on the page like that:

You could change that:

Preferences > Grids > [ ] Grids in Back

Hi Micheal:

Defining the grid, snapping text to the grid and showing the grid are three separate steps. Can we assume you have chosen View > Grids & Guides > Show Baseline Grid? (And then zoom in beyond the threshold set in Preferences).

Go to Preferences, Grids and set Threshold to 5%. And of course make sure you are not in Preview mode ;-)

If on Windows 10, bear in mind that amplifying the screen magnification to say, 150% or 200% can interfere with the visibility threshold of the baseline grid.
