    If you know how far you are off grid then use Edit - Move, then RMB Temp group (make sure your find filter is set) the window select your items, RMB Done the pick an origin and the at the command line type ix the distance you need to move it back on grid (i.e. 0.5 0.5) hit return and the group will move.

    Hi steve, Thanks a lot for your immediate reply. Problem here is I was doing placement & via with 1 mils or .1mils. I don’t know how far I need to move exactly. All these components and vias will be in different offset. So not able to find out exact offset to move. Please suggest.
