I really find I enjoy having the pixel grid, it tends to help me keep track of what I am doing when zoomed in that far and keeps me from going off track per say when I can’t see the full picture
I find it annoying as all hell and I’m here from a Google query seeking to disable it
“Users can turn off the option if they like.”
How? It’s 99% useless. If I work pixelperfect, I know what I’m doing and where the pixels are. Sorry, I thik it is just annoying, too.
Beginners, ok. Professionals (day by day), NO!
Ignoring this … CS4 rocks!
Found it … don’t look in the Prefs, look here …
Main menu:
German: “Ansicht” / “Einblenden” / “Pixelraster”
English (guessing): “View” / “Show” / “Pixel grid” (?)
Have fun!
thanks dude! I did that once in my CS4 install and forgot where it was. Fortunately, it’s in the same place for CS5 (View / Show / Pixel Grid, you guessed right for the english version).
