Snap a GameObject to the grid

When you enable automatic grid snapping, the Move transform tool snaps the selected GameObject to the grid along the active gizmo axis.

If you want the GameObject to move in smaller increments, you can modify the values it uses to transform incrementally.

If grid snapping is enabled but you want to move a GameObject without snapping, hold down Control (macOS: Command) while you use the Move tool.

To enable automatic snapping to the grid:

1. Enable the Move tool in the Tools overlay.
2. In the Tool Settings overlay, set the handle orientation to Global or Grid.
3. In the Grid and Snap overlay, enable Toggle absolute Grid snapping.
