Summary0000112: No snap when zoomed out OR selection is big
DescriptionTry attached element.
( It is a ruler to replace the built in headers - They are beautiful, but sometimes consume too much paper area...)

1) just open that file, Ctrl-A to select everything, and move it a bit: no snap.
At least here on my screen it is zoomed to

2) When zoomed out much so grid get invisible, it does not snap.
This is unexpected so user may place object off snap.
Best solution would be that neither grid not snapping ever get shut off, just continue getting bigger: 10px -> 20 px -> 50px...
TagsNo tags attached.

Both cases have one cause: below 100 % zoom the symbol editor hides the grid and also drops the snap step to 1 unit. A big symbol such as your ruler opens fitted to the window, below 100 %, which is why Ctrl+A and move did not snap either.

Fix in review: https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectrotech-source-mirror/pull/1235
Below 100 % parts now snap every 10 units, as at 100 %. The grid itself stays hidden when zoomed out; a coarser visible grid, as you suggested, is not part of this change.
