Perspective crop grid problem

I use this tool a lot, and a squared grid used to come up as a guide. However, recently this turned into tiny squares with running lines (different sides of the squares), which make it very hard to align anything. I have searched and searched to try to find a way of removing this but to no avail. Please can anyone help?

To reset the tool go to the top left of the options bar:

If that has no effect, then try resetting Preferences. Preferences > General >Reset Preferences on Quit, then close and restart Photoshop.

    Resetting the tool didn't work, but Resetting Preferences on Quit did - thank you so much Davescm - that did the trick! It is great to have the normal grid back.

      Hi

      Can you confirm what version you are using and on what OS.
      I am using PS v 21.1.2 here and perspective crop looks the same as always

      Have you tried resetting the tool?

        I am using Photoshop 21.1.2 in Windows 10. This is the grid I get. I used to get what you have, but may have inadvertently changed a setting that now gives me this grid (the lines move all the time, so you can't even use them to line something up easily). How do you reset the tool?

        Hello, do you have any kind of scaling enabled in Windows?

          As far as I know there isn't any hidden option to revert to previous bahavior or "look". The only thing you can do is to ask developers on Photoshop family site to add option in preferences or in the Options bar or to revert their implementation https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family
