Draw tools snap to grid

Is there a way to toggle the drawing tools so the selection points snap to the grid. The templats snap to the grid but the other drawings don't.

This comes in handy for drawing dungeons by keeping rooms and hallways straight.

Yeah, just hold down the shift key

Perhaps I could put a snap to grid checkbox on the paint pallete

A check box would be nice if you had a lot of things to draw on the grid.

Cool, I think we'll do that then.

I am very inclined to like the chckbox, and even think that maybe "no snap to grid" should be the checkbox except for the freehand tool.

In the Alpha version color palette there is a toggle button for snap to grid. The draw tools will use that value by default, so you can choose to snap or not. Then holding the CTRL key temporarily inverts the toggle value.
