Comments:

Although this is a layered graphic, it cannot be edited using the Idea Studio. It is for use within text mode editing only.

Example:

ZGrid(100, 200, 200, 100 { Bounding box for grid },
      12 { Grid is light red }, 
      5, 5 { X and Y spacing for grid }); 

This places a light red 5x5 point-grid on the screen in the area bounded by the first four parameters.
