Using visual guides in the design process

Dreamweaver has many features that help you design documents and predict how they will appear in browsers. You can do the following:

	Instantly snap the Document window to the desired window size to see how the elements fit on the page. See Resizing the Document window.
	Use rulers to provide a visual cue for positioning and resizing layers or tables.
	Use a tracing image as the page background to help you duplicate a design created in an illustration or image editing application.
	Use the grid for precise positioning and resizing of layers. Grid marks on the page help you align layers, and when snapping is enabled, layers automatically snap to the closest grid point when moved or resized. (Other objects, such as images and paragraphs, do not snap to the grid.) Snapping works regardless of whether the grid is visible. See Snapping layers to the grid.
