Snapping to pixel even when option is turned off - AiCC 18

[Guest]

Hello! Hoping someone can help me with this problem.

I'm having issues with objects snapping to the nearest pixel even when "Align art to pixel grid on creation and transformation" is turned off. The align tool is set to "align to selection". I have no idea what is the issue and can't find any setting in Preferences that might be the culprit.

I did receive this file from my boss but he has the same version of Ai that I do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Are both fields deselected in Transform ?

I don't think that option is available in Illustrator CC 18:

Hi Michael,

Try looking under your 'Properties' Panel instead of the Transform panel in regards to Ray's suggestion. With the latest version of Illustration, the Properties panel has been updated to include a more comprehensive list of adjustments that includes the Pixel Grid Alignment. Let us know if you need further assistance.

Best,

Wren

Align to Pixel Grid isn't a toggle—it moves objects to align to the pixel grid. So far as I can tell, aligning to the pixel grid can't be turned off anymore.

Adobe is assuming that art is made to final scale. There's a reason people like to zoom in to 800 or even 1600%—it's so things align regardless of final scale. When align won't even do this, it's a disaster for art that gets used in multiple resolutions.
