The MX-3000 Editor has ten graphic grids that can be superimposed on the screen under construction and can be used to snap buttons to. The grids can be edited by the programmer, and are quite a timesaver if a number of screens have the same layout (multiple favorite channel screens, for example).

I find editing the grids to be a painful process. To the best of my knowledge the Editor does not display the pixel coordinate of the gridline you are moving, and the only way of moving a gridline is with the mouse. Is there a more sophisticated way of editing the grids that I have overlooked? Currently I resort to moving the gridline, leaving edit mode and snapping a button to the line so that I can read the pixel coordinates from the button's coordinate display. I'm sure I must be overlooking something.

Thanks in advance for any and all advice.

Steve

You're not overlooking anything. The grids are part of the early design of the MX-3000, and unfortunately never really came to be what they were intended to be. They're much more a designer's tool than an editor's tool, to be honest. I use them myself in designing templates, but you're right: they're tough to edit.

Best regards,
Dale

It would be cool if we could change the transparency on them as well.
