Editing Points in Fill/Stamp Mode

The points that you move or insert are positioned at the intersection of the horizontal and vertical lines of the
grid. Regardless of where you drag a point to or insert a point on the line, it will automatically be positioned at
the nearest intersection.

on the grids and adjusting them, refer to "Changing the grid settings" on page 222.
