Thanks I dont feel so bad now. After a few days now I think I am beginning to get the hang of it other than the volume option. I think my major mistake was expecting to be able to completely align objects using the tool and now I realize that I may have to use location settings along with possibly increment to get that part to work in some cases. I realized that using whole numbers &/or tenths only(no .25 or .57 type values) when placing objects & scaling makes life far easier and less time consuming when trying to line things up & snapping using increment. I’m not sure how possible that will be in edit mode but whenever possible I plan to use it.
