Adjusting the grid
Set properties of the layout.grid object to edit the layout grid: you can specify its size, the distance
between grid points, whether grid lines are visible, and whether items dragged on the grid snap to nearby
grid points.
You can also call methods of the layout.grid object to add, delete, select, and deselect HTML elements
on the grid. These have managing objects of their own; see
below.
Sizing and positioning elements on the grid
Elements that are placed on a Layout Grid are managed indirectly by
than directly by their layout objects. The gridLayout object manages an individual element on the
layout grid, allowing you to set the element's size and position with respect to the grid.
