Grid tool in Quark

[mspain77]

is there a such thing as a grid WITHOUT a fill so that I can see the screened text that lies on the layer beneath it?
If not, why does Quark suck so bad?

I'm trying the Modify menu, I went to the swatched and it says no fill, but things behind it are masked.
Thanks.

Hi again mspain77,

Do you mean the baseline grid?

Actually I figured it out. You have to use your typr tool and select individual cells within the grid (you can select more than one) with your cursor (like text) and then knock out the fill. You can't just select the entire grid and do it that way.

So maybe QXP doesn't suck too bad, huh?

Whoa! Slow down--it's no InDesign, that's for sure!! To each their own.
