How to disable snap to visuals

I need to change the size of a visual very precisely but the snapping feature is constantly getting in the way. I don't mean "snap to grid", I mean the feature that snaps the visuals to align with neighbouring visuals in the report. How can I disable this?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

To my knowledge this feature cannot be turned off, however you can make the alignment with the use of the arrows on your keyboard overpassing the use of the alignment to other visuals  or by changing the values of the X/Y position on the options of the visual.
