Hello!
There is an annoying feature in this wonderful product. In the video I try to move the footprint by several grid steps, but the image jumps somewhere up to the center of the footprint. This only happens when zoomed in far enough. I suspect this is more often an inconvenience than a benefit. My grid is 0.0100.

Isn’t it simply jumping to where the nearest snap point is ? and because you are zoomed in you just see that part of the footprint. You can’t move the footprint using an arbitrary point on the footprint as a reference.
To select an arbitrary snapping point, you can use the Move With Reference command instead of the regular Move command (right click → Positioning Tools → Move with Reference). After initiating the command, click on the desired reference point; KiCad will then begin the move with that point as the reference.
