Grids for world map

Alirode

For a conquest styled campaign I am working on a set of test world maps with grids to mark territories, I was wondering if there was a way to keep me from selecting and moving the grid while I'm trying to select and move objects.

Hi Alirode,

Welcome to the forum. There are a couple of ways you can keep from selecting the grid while you work.

1. Open the Select Layer dialog box. An easy way to do this is by left-clicking the box at the top of the screen that contains L: LAYERNAME.
   
2. Find the HEX/SQUARE GRID layer in the list of layers. There are three boxes next to the layer name. Do the following, depending on the result you want:
   • To hide the grid, click the center box. An H will display in the box.
     
   • To freeze the grid, so you can't select it or make changes to it, click the third, right-most box. An F will display in the box.
     
   • To do both, click both boxes.
3. Click OK to close the dialog box.

I hope that helps!
