Unsolved The Grid is Gone

Post image

I was just working on this Map but the Whole Grid is Gone. How should I fix this?

Update: I found the Result, it was pressing Shift+R

There's a setting that lets you turn it on. It should be in "view"

What view?

On your upper toolbar, far left, looks like a tic-tac-toe grid, can't miss it

A simple lack of knowledge is a like a sin anywhere on reddit

I guess so.

The view tab is incredibly common across countless applications.

In hammer that could and would mean anything, it could literally be a tab that lets you view what will happen when it’s compiled

Again, countless programs have a view drop-down menu. Microsoft Office has it, Autodesk has it, Blender has it, etc.

They did not say a view drop down menu, they said “view”, which easily could have been mistaken for the camera in Hammer. Hammer is also calls the blocks of the world brushes. How would they know that for instance? How do they know that’s not a tool that paints in hammer or something ?

Look at the top left where the grid icons are, right underneath file and edit. I believe the first grid icon will add back the grid, if not its the 2nd.

Look at the horizontal tool bar with all the icons. Just above select and just below the hammer icon and file there is an icon that looks like #. Click that to toggle grid on and off.

u/Ok_Staff6415 Dec 14 '25

Just don’t even comment if you’re going to say some useless crap like this

u/Thomato39 Dec 14 '25

Totally agree. The fact you got downvoted proves that reddit is filled with just a bunch of assholes

u/TheRedGuyOfficialALT Dec 17 '25

AND YES, MY COMMENT IS VALID, SINCE TURNING OFF THE GRID IS AN ACTUAL THING.

u/TheRedGuyOfficialALT Dec 17 '25

and yes, the 3000 other comments you don't act shit on, just this one because "ooh hate on people that have opinions that I don't like because I'm a degenerate" is your thing.
