    Dear Community,

    i tried to create a rectangular grid with 2.54mm spacing, but could not find the settings when I clicked on "New" under Documents Properties->Grid.

    Any input is appreciated!

    1. Describe your OS & version, the version of Inkscape and the installer you used.

    Thank you for replying! I am using Inkscape 0.92.4 on Window 10 64 bit. Not sure about the installer as it is pre-installed on my work laptop.

    The dialog should look like this:

    Thank you for replying! I am aware of the expected dialog output, but my Inkscape does not give me that dialog...

    You mean that space under "rectangular Grid/New is complete empty? Same for the other tabs like Page/Guides/Snap etc?

    Work issued machines may have Windows Store installations that are missing pieces or have restrictive permissions. Windows 10-S is the store restricted version of Windows 10.

    It was only under "rectangular grid/new" that is completely empty. 

    I checked and the laptop is not in store mode.

    Thanks for helping out @PixelPest @TylerDurden. After leaving it aside for a couple minutes, I tried to click new again, and the normal dialog appeared! Not sure what was happening: maybe I clicked something wrong/was in a wrong mode. I am sorry that I seem to have asked a "dumb question"...
