So this week, I'd like to share with you a really simple tip to help you move viewports around onto a sheet and snap them exactly to precise locations. So there is a tool called the guide grid which is actually designed specifically for the purpose of lining things up across multiple sheets. And we have actually covered the topic of guide grid earlier in the series. So I welcome you to go back to some of the earlier videos and take a look if you want to learn more about guide grids.
