Is there going to be a grid in Perspective like there is in Vision? I am anal when it comes to alignment and it is much easier when there is a snap grid.

Personally I hope so too, for the Coordinate view at least but I think a lot of Perspective is designed to encourage you to use the different kinds of containers, where you can use margins and padding to accomplish this.

Yep, planned. The underpinnings are already there. While it's not a grid, you can create you own snapping lines by clicking on the ruler bars.

That said, snap grids are on the roadmap as we feel they are a useful design tool. Not sure when they'll make it in.
