Snap to Grid doesn't work

I have been trying for years to get snap to grid work.  This is a literal statement.  Ever since version 8 I believe.  Anyhow I want a .20" square grid (5/inch) and I want to snap to each vertice but it is very unreliable.   It snaps elsewhere or not at all.  It does snap to grid now and then but that's not good enough.  I would think that this would have been corrected by now but...  perhaps I have something not set properly?

  • Hello,
    Step by step recommendation to solve problem
    1. Show rulers
    2. Double click ruler and set units to inches
    3. From Object manager make grid visible
    4. Option/Grid horizontal 5 lines per inch, vertical 5 lines per inch
    5. Turn off Snap to Object, Snap to Page, Snap to Guidlines /but only if you have guidlines/
    6. Turn on Show grid as lines
    7. When you drawing is better to draw / drag from node to node of grid
    8. Set Options/Snap to object snapping radius to 20-35

    I hope this helps
    Greetings!
