-<h2> What is “Snap” and “Grid”?</h2>

+<p>
“Snap” will cause drags and other mouse-driven operations to jump to
positions determined by the nearest snap setting. Snap can be set to
-multiple options: markers, region start/ends, and the grid. ( those
-are all enabled by default. change them in prefs )

Grid can be enabled, and it will draw lines at selected intervals;
which can be musical, like 16th notes, or can be timecode based
-(minutes and seconds) . You can leave the Grid enabled, but snap
+(minutes and seconds). You can leave the Grid enabled, but snap
disabled, if you just want to see the lines but not snap to them.

For example: if the Grid is set to “beats” and Snap-to-grid is
enabled, then any operations such as split, paste, or range-select
will happen exactly on a beat, according to the musical timeline and
tempo.

Alternatively, you can leave “Snap” enabled (so your mouse actions
can snap to Markers, or region edges) but disable the Grid.

+<h2>A Warning, of sorts</h2>
+
+<p class="warning">
+The grid consist of lines running vertically in the edit canvas. If
+you zoom too far out, you might see a coarser grid than you
+expect. Ardour tries not to show “too many” or “too few” grid lines
+depending on the zoom level. You might find that items snap in-between
+the grid lines sometimes. That’s expected behavior. If you can’t see
+or snap to the grid you’d like to use, you may have to zoom in or out.
