Hi all,
is it possible to enable snapping to non visible grid in latest cvs?
    

While I'm aware most graphic apps have that functionality, can you give
us some use cases where such functionality is needed? 

Personally I prefer Inkscape's way of only snapping to a visible grid
since it very much simplifies the interface and gives great feedback to
the user as of what behavior to expect. If I want to snap obejcts to
grid, I can see where it will snap to. If I have the grid visible, I'm
seeing why I cannot move an object freely. It's not like Inkscape is
missing a feature. In my opinion, Inkscape implements a more sane
interface to grid functionality.

If Bulya is going to implement the "smart" snapping, it pretty much
depends on having the grid visible when snapping.

cheers
