Using the Grid Option If you want to line up a series of shapes or draw shapes equidistant to each other, choose Grid On from the Options menu. The Grid On option superimposes a horizontal and vertical pattern of dots on the drawing window and serves as a guide that does not become part of the picture. The Grid On option is helpful when you are drawing geometric figures. The grid causes lines to "snap into place" on the dots.
