Without changing the relative position of the Baseline, is there a way to align the Document Grid to it?
Basically, I have a 15pt Baseline Grid, and would like to use an aligned 7.5pt document grid.

 

thanks

For that to work your Start and Top Margin dimensions would have to be multiples of 15:

You can set where the document grid and the baseline grid start. 
I don't know how many subdivisions you want on your document grid.

15pt document grid with 2 subdivisions would also work?

Hi @Lukas Engqvist , your rulers are set to millimeters—I think the gridlines would have to be every 7.5 points not millimeters:
