Hi,

When I add a drawing to my presentation and try to move it I am only able to
move it so many pixels a time, there seems to be some sort of grid this is
constrained to. Is there a way to change this so I have more flexibility in
the placement of my drawing in the presentation?

Thanks for your help
 
You might have your snap to grid engaged in View | Grid and Guidelines

"Snap to grid" is a nice feature, if you need to align elements. If you only
temporarily want to disenable it, press the Alt-Key when moving your
elements.

Kind regards,
Ute
