Thanks. Ill play with it some more. I would downgrade this issue to a medium priority since the workaround is setting the autozoom per your previous post.

I tried that but it doesnt behave as expected. For example, for the drawing prefs, I set the units to inches (always) and the x grid and y grid to 1/4 . Then at high zoom levels, I see grid spacing of 0.625" and that is what the SG snaps to. Ive tried to capture all of this in one screenshot. Note I...

It seems like the drawing prefs allows the grid to be some power of 10 (0.01,0.1,1.0,10.0,...) but not 0.5, 0.25, 0.125 such as would be common when specs are in inches. Is there any way to achieve this?

thx
