Image snapping while working on artboard

Updated on May 01, 2026

Image Snapping Behavior While Editing on the Artboard

When creating a gang sheet in the builder, images automatically align to a grid system. This snapping behavior helps maintain consistent spacing and precise placement as you move elements across the artboard.

How to Disable Image Snapping

  1. While inside the builder, locate and open the Settings panel.
  2. Find the option labeled "Snap when moving".
  3. Toggle this setting off.
  4. Return to the artboard and move your images freely without grid alignment.

Why Disable Snapping?

Disabling snapping allows for more flexible and precise manual placement of images. This is especially useful when working on custom layouts or when exact grid alignment is not required.
