this seems like it should be simple but I can’t seem to be able to find a way.
Thanks, I got it for PRINT; I can’t find anything for SHOW; not sure where you are getting this sheet with DISPLAY, WINDOW, ZOOM, VISUAL AIDS, OBJECTS. When I click view I don’t get that sheet. I get one that says view gridlines, and one that says gridlines and helplines, but clicking on them doesn’t do anything.

That’s why it is the default to show grid lines. So nobody can tell, how you or your template made 'em disappear. Printing is a different story and personally - I don’t want 'em to be printed.
