How can "snap to grid" impact object arrangement?

The functionality of "snap to grid" primarily serves to ensure that objects align neatly to the defined grid lines within the workspace. When activated, this feature assists users in placing or moving objects with precision, making it easier to create organized layouts and achieve consistent spacing between elements. This alignment allows for more professional and visually appealing designs, as it helps maintain uniformity in the arrangement of objects on the stage.

Leveraging the snap to grid feature can significantly enhance the workflow, especially in projects requiring meticulous alignment, such as animations or designs involving multiple interactive elements. By snapping objects to the grid, you minimize the challenges associated with freeform placement, where objects may become misaligned or haphazardly spaced.

Other options do not contribute to the specific impact on object arrangement. Random grouping of objects does not utilize the grid feature for alignment. Creating layers is a distinct aspect of the design and organization within Animate and does not directly influence alignment to a grid. Restricting movement to specific tools pertains more to the functionality of tools rather than the arrangement capabilities provided through the grid system.
