snapping!
hello everyone! how can i exactly snap vertices to grid intersections? i've tried turning on the snap options and setting the snapping power from a range of 1-8 but it still doesn't snap perfectly to the grid intersection...how do i correct this? thanks a lot to everyone!

In what program?
Here's how the snap works in Illustrator: If you move an object in your work to within the specified point distance of a grid intersection, it should snap right to it. Likewise, if you draw a new object after setting it to snap, it should snap to the grid intersections.
But objects drawn before you set it to snap to grid aren't snapped unless you individually move each object to within the specified distance of the grid interesection.
I hope this helps,
DCS
