Sounds to me like you need to go into CONTROL PANEL and set the
granularity of the sizing grid. The following is from the Windows 3.0
manual page 157:
"1. Choose the Desktop icon from the Control Panel window.
2. Move to the Granularity text box in the lower-right
portion of the of the dialog box.
3. Click the Up or Down scroll arrow to the right of the text
box to increase or decrease the size of the grid. Or type
the number you want.
The allowed range is 0 through 49. The grid ganges in
multiples of eight pixels. A value of 1 creates a grid
with magnetic spots every eight pixels, 2 places magnetic
spots every 16 pixels, and so forth. ...... A value of 0
cancels the grid.
4. Choose OK."
