Snap to Millimeters often fails

Previous PCBs I've designed using EasyEDA have used a 100mil based grid with 25mil snap and it works fine.  However current PCB is all SMD so I'm using a 1mm grid with a 0.5mm smap.  This usually works but sometimes, especially when moving vias, the via offsets left or right a little and it takes several attempts to get it in the correct place, usually involving zooming in a lot. Also when moving components I often find them centred on xx.04 mm or xx.96 mm, which suggests something is possibly still working in mils.  Only way to fix this once they are wrong seems to be to type in the correct co-ordinates in the right hand side window.

+1, this has been painful. It can easily be seen by moving a part, then moving it again. It snaps to two different positions.

Yes - one each side of where you actually want it !!   Only by zooming in does it go away (usually)

In the above image, snap == grid at 1mm.

Yes that's exactly what I see as well. Also yesterday I set a track to 0.25mm and when I checked it, it was 0.254mm !!    The engine is obviously still using mils somewhere and converting back
