if you have guides enables and grid disabled and you are close to a guide but you want to place \
the object not on the guide but only close the user would disable snapping by pressing shift. \
But when this automatically switches grid on he will he has not the posibility to place it \
where he likes as the grid gets in his way. That is why I propsed: If grid, guide or both is on \
shift disables themIf grid and guide is of shift enables guide. I see that we have here a \
conflict between you want to be able to position your object where you like so switching \
snapping off, or the user expects to toggle snap to grid by shift. \
