How do I turn off "snap-to" in Google Drawings?
I have a ton of shapes with snapped lines to other shapes, and every time I need to rearrange shapes or drag a line elsewhere or want a line to end at a specific location, its large radius for snapping causes unwanted behavior.
This type of action is generally performed with pressing of SHIFT key or CTRL or both CTRL + SHIFT across most major platforms where snapping needs to be cased in order to finetune the position of an object.
Hold down the ALT key while dragging the line to avoid the snap points
In view -> snap to, the values can either be grid, guides or null. Clicking on a 'ticked' value will untick it to null and allow movement to any position with no snapping.
In Drawing, click on "Actions" and scroll down to "Snap to (X)". Then, click off the pre-selected "Guides". Tadaaa! Should work.
An easy way, but not perfect way, is to just put it as close as possible to where you want it and use the arrow keys on a computer.
On the menu bar: View > Snap to > Uncheck both "Grid" and "Guides"
