To disable the grid lock in Roblox Studio, try these two fixes first:

  1. Open File β†’ Beta Features.
  2. Turn off Dragger QoL Improvements.
  3. Restart Roblox Studio.

If the grid still shows up, you may have turned on the Transform tool by accident. Switch back to Select , Move , Scale , or Rotate from the top bar, or use the shortcut for the tool you want instead of Transform.

Extra check

Some users also report a related setting under File β†’ Studio Settings β†’ Selection , where a grid/selection option can be disabled.

What usually works

  • First choice: disable Dragger QoL Improvements.
  • Second choice: switch out of Transform mode.
  • Third choice: check Studio Settings for selection/grid options.

In most cases, the issue is not a true β€œgrid lock” setting, but a Studio dragger or transform feature that makes objects snap or show a grid overlay.

TL;DR: turn off Dragger QoL Improvements in File β†’ Beta Features , restart Studio, and make sure you are not in Transform mode.
