Thanks, this definitely helps. Since what I was looking for seems not to
exist in Dia, I'll use this.
I guess the ideal solution would if this could automatically happen when
moving objects, so objects snapping to each other. That would snap an
object when its center is on the same line(parallel to one of the grid
axes) as an other object and when its top is on the same horizontal line
as the top of another object, etc.
I know some other programs do have this feature, it would be great if
Dia also had.
Kind regards, Ale

You can pick any disparate group of items and use Objects Align
Middle. That is actually more productive than trying to snap them to
grid and jogging back and forth with the cursor keys to get them just so.

Hi,
I've been using dia for a while now, but always found it hard to
get everything lined-up nicely. Is it possible to snap an objects
center to the grid? This would make it much easier to get a clear
layout than snapping the topleft corner.
Ale
