View Tab

The View tab allows you to make selections that determine which views to display, and how the grid and guidelines are displayed on the canvas, as well as how to display units, and layers in the active graphic.

The View tab contains the following groups:

Workspace

The Workspace group options allow you to hide or display grids and guidelines, as well as attach graphic elements to guidelines.

Workspace Group
Name	Description
Snap	Attach elements to the nearest guideline to make it easier to create an accurate graphic. Enabled by default. Snap and Editing Elements With Snap enabled, an element can be moved by a set number of increments. This is configurable in the Graphic properties, in the Workspace section: Pitch X and Pitch Y. These properties allow you to adjust the distance between the gridlines. When Snap is disabled, you can move the elements pixel-by-pixel instead. This is useful when adjusting Pipe elements, for example.
Display Grid	Display or hide a pattern of equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines on a graphic to help you align elements symmetrically and precisely.
Display Guidelines	Display or hide horizontal or vertical guidelines lines dragged onto a graphic to help you align elements symmetrically and precisely.
