No, the Gridify feature in Adobe InDesign doesn’t directly allow you to turn the created boxes into guides. However, you can manually convert the boxes into guides after using Gridify by following these steps: Steps to Convert Boxes to Guides: 1. Use Gridify to Create Boxes: • Drag with a tool like the Rectangle Tool while holding down the Arrow keys to create multiple boxes in a grid. 2. Select the Boxes: • Use the Selection Tool (V) to select all the boxes you want to turn into guides. 3. Convert Boxes to Guides: • Go to View > Grids & Guides > Make Guides (or right-click the selected boxes and choose Make Guides). Alternatively, use the shortcut Ctrl+5 (Windows) or Cmd+5 (Mac). Hope that answers the question!
so what if i use this and make 3 x 3 grid to show 9 product images with short text descriptions below them, then in the future i wanna add a new product in between 2 of the items, is there a way to do this and have all the other products that will be after the new one move down a box? can you make a video on this and if reflow if possible pleaaase 💖
1. Select the two boxes you want to merge. 2. Go to Object > Gridify. 3. In the Gridify dialog box, select the Merge option. 4. Click OK. 5. The two boxes will be merged into one box.
At 3 minutes, how are you getting such a wide distance between your lines? I tried your technique and my lines are much more closely spaced than yours?
Thanks for watching the video and for the question. The primary reason for closely spaced lines in gridify is the grid settings you've chosen. You may have set a small gutter or spacing value between rows and columns. To fix this, select the grid you've created and adjust the gutter or spacing settings in the gridify dialog box. I'm sure it will solve the issue.
what exactly is that dialog box, when you specify in the beginning of the video that there is no "actual" tool for the Gridify feature?@@CreativityGarage
