## GRID SETTINGS

In **Grid Style**, you can choose what kind of grid you want. By default, the grid is set to **Dotted**.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Reminder:** Press <kbd>**G**</kbd> to toggle the grid on or off and press <kbd>**S**</kbd> to enable or disable snapping.
{% endhint %}

## CAMERA FILTERS

You can choose a **Camera Filter**, which will transform the colors of your map.&#x20;

* **None**: No filter applied.
* **Printer-Friendly**: Sets the map to black and white so you can print it more easily.
* **Sepia**: Gives your map an old-looking aspect.

## BUILDING WEAR

You can also add a light texture to your walls and floors ([Building Tool](/guide/all-the-tools/design-tab/building-tool.md) and [Cave Tool](/guide/all-the-tools/design-tab/cave-brush.md) floors only) by changing the **Building Wear** style.

{% hint style="warning" %}
In some cases, for example if you're using [custom assets](/guide/introduction/first-look/assets-menu.md), I'd recommend to set the Building Wear to none, or you might have some mismatched colors between assets placed with different tools.
