Hi all,

in the page design manual the section “grid” does not mention
that the grid needs to be enabled by \setuplayout[grid=yes].
Although the “grid” parameter is briefly discussed alongside the
other parameters of \setuplayout, there is no hint at the
available snapping methods.

Philipp

+Grid typesetting is part of the page layout.
+To enable it globally, the parameter \type{grid} needs to be
