Xara's Nudging and Grid do not seem to work hand in hand?

The image below should explain it all.

Are your grid and nudge settings matching in the program Options?

Do you mean: Page Options > Units > Default Units > Page: Millimeters ?
The grid size, nudge size and default Units have all been set to millimeter.
It's something I wanted to report about ages ago.

what about if you do your nudging with the outline* set to none or view mode set to1

*or border or stroke i forgot what its called

Big Frank, stroke or not, or the proportional line width toggle on/off (which snaps to the grid with outline thickness) - makes no difference.

You need to zoom in 25600% to see the change. Please see the Xara file attached. Open it up, select the square and move it 8xright, 8xdown using the cursor keys. Zoom in to the top left corner and you see the square is off grid.
