30 even spacings across or down? 420.5 divided by 30 is an
irrational number, so it’s not likely you’ll get 30 even spacings
across without one being slightly off.
Exactly!
So, how should one set up the grid then?
The number isn’t irrational, it’s just that Intaglio rejects it.
14.01666666667 to be precise. I chose this number because I counted
the existing
number of squares in the grid- which was roughly 30 already
In a CAD program, you wouldn’t have this problem normally. (I’m
talking AutoCAD btw)
So again, my question is; how does one set up the grid for an equal
amount of spaces?
(FWIW, I’ve been an Intaglio user for about 5 or 6 years, and this
still foxes me. It’s the power
of apple-shift-4 you know, Quartz realtime resizing and being able to
export GIF’s from
Photoshop you know! :¬) )
But, it really depends on what you’re trying to do.
Ooh I hate questions like this! lol! That’s a very specific question.
What am I trying to do?
Well, create an A3 layout, which I must say I’ve done countless times
before without
setting the grid- but this time I want to use the dimension tool,
which imho, is about
as cryptic as the grid, and they need each other.
I’ve tried inputting the dimensions of x and y to meet A3, yet the
dimension tool gives
a very incorrect reading.
So, what gives?
Question again, just to be sure; “I want to set the grid for equal
spacing on (UK, not USA) A3 (or A4)
so that the Dimensioning tool also works correctly”

Tom
