## <mark style="color:blue;">Gridlines</mark>

**Gridlines** are light blue guidelines that are only visible while editing or creating a quilt block in the [*<mark style="color:blue;">Block Editor</mark>*](/pq-glossary/bs.md#block-editor) panel. There are both horizontal and vertical grid lines that will equally divide the horizontal or vertical space in relation to the number of gridlines selected.&#x20;

In this example, there are 5 horizontal grid lines and 4 vertical gridlines that create equally divided rectangles in the block area.
