Which option enables rulers, grids, and guides to be visible in Illustrator?

• A. View > Show Rulers, Show Grid, and Show Guides
• B. Window > Rulers
• C. View > Artboard
• D. Edit > Preferences > Grids

Answer: (A)

Rulers, grids, and guides visibility is controlled from the View menu by turning them on with Show Rulers, Show Grid, and Show Guides. This path turns on all three elements so you have measurement marks, a grid to align objects to, and guides to snap to. The other options don’t enable all three at once: Window > Rulers isn’t the visibility command for rulers; View > Artboard affects the artboard view rather than the measurement/placement aids; and Edit > Preferences > Grids changes how the grid behaves (spacing, color, etc.) rather than simply showing or hiding it. You can also toggle each element individually via their own commands or shortcuts if you prefer.
