Finder Icon Temporary Snap to Grid
Ivan | Sun, 2007-10-21 08:26
You can arrange to a grid all your document icons in a Finder window by selecting the menu View / Arrange by.
But, what if you want the snap to grid option to be applied to a few items only. Simply press the Apple (Command) key while dragging the icons in position. The icon will snap to place with a smooth transition. You can even do this to several icons at once.

Dude... that is sweet! Didn't knew this :)
Thanks! We always keep learning!! By the way... just 5 days and 5 hours left for Leopard! :D :D :D :D
If you have your Finder preferences set for all icons to ALWAYS snap to grid, you can move icons to NOT snap to grid by holding the Command key down.
Great tip Ivan!
