How do you enable and use Grid and Snap features for alignment?

• A. View > Show > Grid; enable Snapping via View > Snap and View > Snap To; adjust grid in Preferences
• B. Edit > Preferences > Grid
• C. Layer > Grid > Enable
• D. Image > Adjustments > Snap

Answer: (A)

Grid provides a visual reference you can use to align elements precisely, and snapping makes objects automatically lock to those references as you move or resize them. To see the grid, choose View > Show > Grid. To make objects align as you move them, turn on snapping with View > Snap and specify what to snap to with View > Snap To (include Grid so things land on the grid lines). If you want to adjust how fine the grid is, open the preferences for Guides, Grid & Slices and set Gridline Every and Subdivisions. The exact menu path is Edit > Preferences > Guides, Grid & Slices on Windows (or Photoshop > Preferences > Guides, Grid & Slices on Mac). Once set, dragging a layer near a grid line will snap to it, helping you achieve precise alignment.
