Aligning regions in Mathcad Prime 9

Hello, 

 

Moving to Mathcad Prime 9 from V15, and noticed there are no rules or guidelines to align the different regions of the document. 

Any suggestions/tips/tricks to align the regions other by eyeballing them?

The curser snaps to grid.  Does not matter if grid is showing or not. You will get used to aligning by the snap to grid.

In Document | Page | Show Grid you can set if grid is showing or not and the selection of standard or fine size grid.

 

Most people in the forum use standard grid size.

 

Cheers

Terry

    The second post was not intentional. This happened with another post of mine as well

    Freaking unbelievable!!  I am being FORCED to finally switch to Prime as Mathcad 15 can no longer be installed on new computers.  I never switched because I was always waiting for Prime to catch up.  Well, 11 years later, Prime 12 has still managed not to catch up on even the most simple and useful capabilities.  PTC has ruined this previously fantastic software.
