Objects (such as a rectangle) do not snap exactly to gridlines in LO Writer. If I try to move the object horizontally, its left edge always seem to snap to about 0.18cm to the right of the nearest vertical gridline. However, if I move it vertically, then it snaps exactly to the nearest horizontal gridline. I've tried this with a rectangle exactly a whole number of grid points wide and high. In all other LO apps that I've tried (Calc, Impress, Draw), objects appear to snap exactly to the nearest horizontal and vertical gridlines (as they should).
I confirm the bug below Windows 10 Home; Version 1903; 64-Bit Version: 6.2.5.2 (x64) Build ID: 1ec314fa52f458adc18c4f025c545a4e8b22c159 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; Locale: en-GB (en_GB); UI-Language: en-GB Calc: threaded
