Default dropping automation break point exactly on grid and location line?

Hi,

Am i dreaming? or did it used to be possible to drop an automation break point exactly on the grid lines?
and the same for the memory location marker lines?

Are you in Relative Grid by chance?

Try using the selector to locate the placement and then Command / to place the breakpoint, see if that matters.

At home now and my LE system works this way on the grid!

What about dropping them on the location markers line? any way to get it exactly on the spot?
