Many times, when you are working in the design screen, it would be handy to have grid lines and a ruler to assist you in placing text and objects precisely in your web page.  FrontPage 2003 now has this handy feature. 

 

If you click-on View in the Menu Bar, then click Ruler and Grid the menu at the left will appear. 

 

We clicked Show Ruler, Show Grid and Snap to Grid and, as we did, the ruler and grid appeared on our design screen, like the image below.

 

 

Notice that a ruler and grid lines have been added to the design web screen.

 

If you desire a larger or smaller grid, follow the instructions above – except click-on Configure to access the Page Options menu screen and the Ruler and Grid tab (as shown at the top of the next page).

 

 

Make any changes that you desire and click the OK button to confirm. 

If you don’t want the grid and ruler, simply follow the instructions at the top of the last page and “click-off” the check marks for the grid and ruler.
