Add the ability to control the size of the grid in Power BI.

It's great to have snap-to-grid functionality and gridlines in Power BI Desktop. However, I haven't used this feature much because the standard grid size is not useful for my particular reports. I need the ability to change the size of the grid to make it more/less dense depending on my scenario.

Please, add this feature! It's been over 5 years now since it has been requested. This would make the creation of layouts in reports much easier!

RE: Adjust grid size

how many more votes do you need? How is other people's opinion contingent on the work that we do at our organization?

RE: Adjust grid size

Need this, so annoying that sometimes the grid space changes and you cannot align the report properly.

RE: Adjust grid size

Definitely needed. The standard grid isn't granular enough for the majority of the dashboards and reports that I'm creating.

RE: Adjust grid size

Additionally, if you expand side bars (Filters, Visualizations, Fields) you may change the snap to grid. The grid should "stick" with the page or report so that edits use the same grid as the original design. And we need to be able to pick a finer grid. Thank you.

RE: Adjust grid size

Please +1.

Also, why is the default grid shifted to the rights?
Left of the canvas it's nearly a full box and the canvas on the rights ends with a quarter of a box.
