You can show the grid at any time - just press G.

I’m missing horizontal & vertical rulers, which also can be set to “percent” – and then work with cropped images.
I think the preferences changed. The highest you can select is 200. If you put in a number higher than that, the grid it shows is still the 200 one. And the grid is still not perfectly aligned in the center. I would say the grid system in Dxo as currently implemented is sub-optimal.

That’s not the only one missing (euphemism), you’ll see …
But photolab has some unique features that makes people use and like it anyway. You’ll have to concede quite a lot to use those features (which are good).
