Hello,
Does anyone know how to turn off snap to grid in Microsoft Word for Mac 2004? I am trying to move text boxes and they just keep jumping around and will not line up the way I want them to because of some stupid snap to grid type thing.
It sounds like it would be something people would really like to do doesn't it, moving a text box just a little bit. But no, Microsoft insists on using some stupid snap to grid type thing to make the text box jump about a centimeter, instead of the odd millimeter.
Is there a stupid snap to grid type thing involved here? If so, which pile of windows do I have to plough through to find the one check box - which I never checked in the first place - to uncheck it and turn of the stupid snap to grid type thing?
No hurry. I've given up work for today and gone home to watch TV with the intention of buying iWork tomorrow. But I'd still like to know the answer, if there is one.
Cheers,
Martin
PS. I wonder how many man hours are lost at work because of Windows.

The 'snap' doesn't work well, because the object left attribute depends on the pointer somehow. Replication by dragging object and watching my controls output. For example when moving the red rectangle to position left:62, the rectangle isn't intersected with the blue rectangle.

When arranging content on slides, you can toggle several alignment features on and off in PowerPoint 2011 for Mac. These features are designed to help you place objects in alignment with each other or to an invisible grid on a slide.

Rulers

Toggle Rulers on and off by choosing View→Ruler on the menu bar or by right-clicking in the slide area (but not on an object) and choosing Ruler from the contextual menu. When nothing is selected, a line in each ruler indicates the current cursor position. When an object is selected, its position is shown in the ruler.

Guides

You can toggle certain guide tools on and off by choosing View→Guides from the menu bar or by choosing Guides from the contextual menu you see when you right-click in the slide area in Normal, Slide Master, or slide design layout in Slide Master view. From the Guides sub-menu, toggle any combination of the following on or off:

  • Dynamic Guides: When these guides are turned on, as you drag objects slowly on your slide, guide lines will automatically appear when the selection border of the object you are dragging is perfectly aligned with another object on the slide.

  • Static Guides: Turn these on to display a blue horizontal line and vertical line — the static guides. After positioning an object, drag the static guides to match the position of the object. The guides stay put so you can align other objects along the same line.

  • Snap to Grid: When toggled on, this option causes objects to automatically align to an invisible grid as you drag them slowly. When toggled on, as you drag an object it will move in small increments rather than smoothly.

  • Snap to Shape: When Snap to Shape is turned on, take these steps:

    1. a.Drag an object to a position that’s close to being aligned with another object on the slide.

      If Dynamic Guides are also on, the Dynamic Guides appear a little sooner than when Snap to Shape is turned off.

    2. b.When you see a Dynamic Guide, you can let go of the mouse, and the object you’re dragging aligns itself to the other object.

      It might feel as if the Dynamic Guide is pulling the object you’re dragging away from your control. The Snap to Shape option is subtle, but it could have just enough effect to make life easier when aligning shapes to each other.
