How do I stop the grid changing as I zoom? I set the grid to (say) 0.5 (not Auto). I want the grid to stay at 0.5 no matter how much or how little I zoom. As it is, if I'm putting stuff on a grid and I zoom in to do some detail, I suddenly find that the grid I specified has changed.

You can switch off grid autoscaling in the application preferences:
"Automatically scale grid".
If you zoom out, the grid spacing is always adjusted. This is because a sub-pixel grid would be quite simply neither visible nor accessible and therefore useless. However, you may want to decrease the minimum grid spacing in pixels in the application preferences (warning: a low minimum pixel grid spacing can make QCAD very slow / unusable).
