Click to toggle graphic size

This page view shows a full page grid (columns, and modules in function of baseline grid), margin box, text frames borders, and the article links markers. Such view is useful for newspapers that use a baseline grid.

To achieve such view on the current page

On the View menu, ensure that Guides, Column, Module, Frames, and Images are selected, while Formats and Types and Text Information are not selected.

Ensure also that the modules height on the current master page is set to the baseline grid value.

Notes

The Module option on the View menu won't display any modules, if you disabled module display in your personal preferences (Edit > Preferences > Grid > Modules).

Since the baseline grid is page specific, i.e. you have to set it for each page independently, it is not possible to make such view as your default view, but Fred4 will permanently store the baseline grid setting for pages where you set it up.
