Grids allow you to define the points or steps to which items will “snap” when they are placed. The Grid Step dialog allows you to add or change the basic step size for any grid in the design.

How to Use This Dialog
At it’s simplest, using this dialog is as easy as pressing the shortcut key, typing the new grid value, and pressing Enter. This will change the current grid to the new value.
Alternatively, you can set the current grid to one of the predefined grids in the list. This list includes all the built-in grids and any which have been defined in the Grids dialog.
The Step field confirms the resulting grid value.
More complex grid settings can be made in the Grids dialog.
