How to make grid visible ?

Trying to make a grid based online game, I would like to be able to see how to see the grid while running test, or to make it togglable.

I want to be able to see how the tiles for the graphics layout with and without the grid. Possible?

Just draw lines.

jeroen79 is right, you need to manually add lines to your program. There is another way though, assuming your images for your grid are bigger than say 5px wide and high, you can make a 'test' tileset where you draw black lines on the images around the border. That would work, and depending on how many images you are using it may be faster. Drawing lines slows rendering time considerably.

Will this be coded or done differently. Sorry. Not understand fully.

dont do it that way, just draw horizontal lines across the screen every height of the sprite and vertical ones every width of the sprite. It is just that simple

I can see drawing lines and importing somehow, but drawing lines by height and width without coding is doable... i will reattempt, but this latest info is c onfusing.

well you could do this also....

Dim wid As Long
Dim hig As Long
Dim X As Long
Dim Y As Long
Dim SresW As Long
Dim SresH As Long

'total width of the area
wid = Picture1.Width
hig = Picture1.Height

'how many squares across
X = Text1.Text

'how many squares Down
Y = Text2.Text

SresW = wid / X
SresH = hig / Y

For i = 1 To X
Picture1.Line (SresW * i, 0)-(SresW * i, hig)
Next i

For a = 1 To Y
Picture1.Line (0, SresH * a)-(wid, SresH * a)
Next a

this will draw the lines for you according to the size of the picturebox and how many boxes you want.

so you can make 2 textboxes or you can just change them to a specific number.
