How do I get the grid to show on the stage?
I have seen tutorials where there is a grid on the stage section of Scratch. I think that would be a useful tool when teaching students about the x/y coordinates of Scratch and about variables. I realize the mouse and sprite positions are listed, but the grid would help some students conceptualize and plan their projects. How do I get the grid to show? And how do I hide it again?
Many thanks in advance.

Hmmm. I've never seen a Scratch option to put a grid on the stage. Possibly, they made a background that looked like a grid?

I did a "graph paper" background for this project:

The grid is drawn on the screen by moving and stamping a sprite, so it could be adjusted to different grid sizes by adjusting two variables. Please feel free to use the sprite. -MrEd
