Only get rule of thirds grid overlay in Lightroom

I can't get any other grid overlays other than rule of thrids in lightroom. When I type R, the crop tool does not come up, the radial gradient does. C brings up crop tool. When I press O while in crop tool, it only says hide overlays or show tool overlays...there's no cycling through additional overlays.

Problem or error

What you see is what Lightroom has!- Limited!

It does not have the same features as Lightroom-Classic. And the keyboard shortcuts are different!

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

Is it possible to add Grid overlay as a plug in?

I only found a simpel rule of third in LR2020 (View/Edit tools/Show overlay/Tool)

Lightroom (cloud based) will only show the 1/3rds overlay [O]

Lightroom (cloud based) does not support plugins. (yet! maybe in the future Adobe may add the possibility)
