Why are my Controls not snapping to the grid lines?

I'd like to be able to snap to the grid lines when moving Controls around the report layout, but the Controls are only able to snap to the alignment of other Control edges. Is there a checkbox in the Report Properties that I am not seeing?

  Hi Lee,

   

  There is an 'Align to Grid' button you can use to snap a control to the grid. There is also a 'Size to Grid' button and several others which can be quite useful.

  Thanks Darren, that helps a lot! As a follow-up question, in lieu of having to select each Control individually for using Align To Grid, is there a Report property that can be set that will make every Control that is added automatically snap to the grid?

  Unfortunately there is no way to automatically snap to the grid at this time.
