  1. Activate grid lines with the Show Grid checkbox.

  2. Select Show Major Lines and set the number of crosses to fit between them.

TIP

If you've set a fabric count of, say, 14 stitches per inch, set the distance between major grid lines to 14 as well. That way you can visualize better each square inch of your design.
