The <em>Grid</em> helps visually placing items in time. It will draw

lines at selected intervals as chosen in the drop-down selector.

Musical grid settings (<em>Bar</em> to <em>Sextuplets</em>) obviously

depend on the <a href="@@tempo-and-meter">tempo and meter</a>, so
|

changing the tempo or meter will rescale the grid, while absolute grid
