    I actually do not have this option. How could I turn it on?

      Hi Alton AAltonm3 ,

      Can you show us a screenshot of your UI with the missing Grid Snapping, please?

      Remember to download Blender 4.2 if you haven't, so things match with what you see in the video lessons.

      In 4.2 it's right below incremental where it says grid. Hotkey is shift+Ctrl+tab.

      Hi Alton! In Blender 4.2 the "Grid" option replaced the checkbox for "Absolute Grid Snap" in previous versions. As Omar mentioned, ensure you are in the correct version of Blender - things can get a bit confusing otherwise.

      I'm right there with you Alton. I have what I thought was a newer version of Blender (because it hasn't mentioned anything about updating), and I watched this video over and over and over and finally thought to look at the comments and can see I wasn't the only one confused lol

      Sorry for the confusion. But yes, in the first video JL says to be sure to download Blender 4.2 so you can follow along and to also watch the Blender Basics course first. But with Blender this is super normal, it used to happen to me all the time because I didn't know Blender got updated so frequently.
