You can use a grid to help when aligning objects on a page. When displayed, this grid makes your pages look like graph paper. You can also make objects ‘snap’ to the lines of the grid when you move them.

Choose View->Grid & Guides->Show Grid to display the grid.

The distance between grid lines and the snapping behaviour can be controlled by you.

The grid has major (darker) and minor (lighter) grid-lines.
