Hi all,

Haven’t met this one before..and I have Googled to try to find a solution. When I open a photo and add a grid (view>extras or view>grid) a grid is added. Fine. When I click view>deselect grid..fine. However…opening a new photo adds a grid again. I did the usual ctrl+alt+shift to reset preferences which worked, but the next time I add a grid the thing keeps coming up as before.
What am i doing wrong?

Cheers,

Paul

You are doing nothing wrong. Photoshop behaves that way. I do not like it at all, and consider it a bug or poor choice of behavior.

Show Grid seems to be a session thing but not universal in that you cannot decide to show a grid unless an image is open. Then it ‘sticks’.

When you have the grid displayed, then save the image, it will open with the grid next time. That’s a good thing.

However, when you save and close the image, the next image you open will also display a grid even though it never had one before. That’s a bad thing.

Try Cmd + ‘ to show the grid, and same command to hide the grid. —

On average, everyone has one testicle and one overy

Try Cmd + ‘ to show the grid, and same command to hide the grid.

On a PC, to show/hide grid it is Control + ‘.
