I AM BESIDE MYSELF - NUDGE TOOL NOT WORKING AS IT SHOULD

I haven't used Illustrator in a while, but I think I know it fairly well.

When I create 2 objects and I try to move one in relation to the other, I can nudge with the keyboard but only in specific increments. It makes no differend if I hold down 'shift' or not, the nudging is the same. When I use the mouse to drag the object it will only drag in steps, there is no way to do a tiny movement. When I change the keyboard increments in the 'general' settings it makes no differene.  I know this used to work fine, so what has changed?

Look near the bottom of the View menu and see if Snap to Grid is activated (or one of the other snap options). If so, this could be the cause.
