Grid lines are 10x10, not default set in preferences

My
Preferences / Default Grid
says the grid spacing is 48 pixels for both width and height.

Yet when I choose View / Show Grid
I get lines spaced on 10 x 10 intervals.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Gary

That seems strange, the standard installation sets the default grid to 10x10 pixels.

You could look at your .gimp-2.8/gimprc and /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc file to see if anything has been set, but my guess is something is broke?

Have you tried setting a new default grid?

Just discovered I had set the grid size using the option under the image menu. Since this was a .xcf file, apparently that setting was saved as the default for the image, over-riding the gimp default. I didn't realize setting the grid size on the image menu was something that was preserved across saves.

Thanks for the reply,

Gary
