Better Light 7 manual

When manual grid adjustment is used, the values in the grid spacing ﬁelds in the Pref- erences are automatically adjusted to reﬂect the manual settings. When opening the ViewFinder™ program again, the grid values will be those active when the program was previously quit (if the Auto Save Preferences option is checked in the File menu).

The same controls from the Grid section of the Preferences window can be accessed by holding the Control button and double-clicking (double right-click in Windows) on a grid line in the preview image. A dialog box will appear to set the grid preferences.
