Wanted to add a faded, but consistent grid as a background to my logo. This worked an absolute treat. My logo is black, so I just substituted the stroke to a white colour. I then lowered the opacity down to 10% on the layer that the grid sits on. Clear and easy to use tute, Many Thanks, Paul Hi.

Hopefully this should help clear any confusion. I expanded the article at the top to illustrate why you can’t use the grid tool to create proportional grids.

I needed to reference some pictures for a drawing, and the were on the PC and thi is just what i needed. If you need it to be white, instead of putting the "black" setting in this part: "Press Shift - F5 and select Black From the drop down list",just put white. This is just AWESOME.
