PowerPoint snap to grid

[agibsonsw]

Hello. PowerPoint 2003.
The PowerPoint 'snap to grid' feature doesn't seem to do anything, even if I reduce
the Spacing?
Why is this? Thanks, Andy.
(With apologies, I may have asked this before..)

Try setting the grid spacing to a larger number, e.g. 0.25" and make sure that "Snap objects to grid" is on (ticked). If you move an object (text box, shape or other object), you should see it "jump" in steps of 0.25". If you set the grid spacing too small, you'll hardly be able to see its effect.

You can always bypass snap to grid by holding down Alt while dragging or holding down Ctrl while using the arrow keys.
