How to use Logo Grid Generator V1

Logo Grid Generator was created with logo designers in mind. A tool built for simplicity, making it incredibly easy for designers to use seamlessly in Adobe illustrator.

Grid Components

There are 4 grid components that you can generate:

  • Anchors
  • Handles
  • Outlines
  • Gridlines

Each component serves a distinct purpose, enabling faster grid creation and making it easier to spot errors in your logos.

How to Generate Grids Instantly

There's two ways to generate grids:

  • The first method involves first selecting your desired components individually, and then clicking 'Generate'.
  • The second method is to simply click 'Generate All'.

How to Find Errors

Identifying errors is highly beneficial when using this tool. The most effective grid components for this task are 'Anchors' and 'Gridlines'.

  • You can identify errors with the Anchors Grid Component by spotting duplicated anchors that are positioned too closely and may be overlapping. Correcting this error ensures that there will be no visible pivots in your designs, particularly when they are printed.
  • You can identify errors using the Gridlines Component by checking for the following issues after generating the grid. If gridlines don't appear, it indicates that the lines are not straight and may have a slight curve. In this case, consider recreating the line and generating it again. Additionally, you can spot errors if there are gaps between the logo and the gridlines, which may suggest that the angle is inconsistent with the rest of the logo.

How to Increase Anchor & Handles Sizes

Logo Grid Generator V1 doesn't have the Customisation tab update. To change size and colors of your grids, you will have to execute this with Adobe's built in functions.

To increase Anchor and Handle sizes, here is what you can do:

  • Go to Object > Transform > Transform Each
  • Make sure the link button is selected so your adjusting vertical and horizontal sides at the same time
  • Move the slider left to right in order to increase/ decrease the size

How to Change Anchor & Handles Colours/ Stroke Weight

To change grid component colours, here's what you can do:

  • Select the target layer button for desired grid component (it can be found in the layers panel)
  • As you have now selected the components, you can choose the colour/ stroke weight as you normally would in Adobe Illustrator
