Hi!

I just can't find out why I don't see a grid in my forms designer. I've set
the following grid settings under Tools->Options->Windows Forms Designer"

GridSize = 4;4
ShowGrid = True
SnapToGrid = True

What am I doing wrong?

At the same location, change SnapLines to SnapToGrid, then restart Visual
Studio to see the effect of the change.

Ah...

So you can't have both grid and snaplines?

I should have said:

At the same location, change the setting for Layout Mode from SnapLines to
SnapToGrid, then restart Visual Studio to see the effect of the change.
