Objects snapping to random dimensions

Hello,

I can’t get my objects to snap onto the grid lines consistently. For example, I want to extend a face on a 3D object from 3.8” to 3.9” but it ends up snapping to random numbers like 3.862” and 3.914”. This happens when I try to move the whole object or just a face. I have tried adjusting all the snap settings I could think of. Video of problem below. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

When using inches, dimensions increase/decrease in fractions of an inch. For example 1/2"=0.5" 1/4"=0.25" and so on. The zoom level of the camera determines what fraction is used and because your model is small and you are zoomed in a lot 1/32"=0.3125" is being used. If you want to increase by 0.1" this will have to be typed in manually. The two best ways for you to do this in the example above are to select the dimension and change it to 3.9 or to select the face, change the tool to extrude, tap on the arrow and type in 0.1. I hope this helps
