Snap to grid is ignored at artboard edges.
See animation attached.
It makes me cry.

    It’s been fixed in the latest Beta 29.5.0.15 — wow!
It now WORKS. Please try it and comment back if my eyes are not deceiving me.

      Anonymous commented Snapping to the grid is not working when the selected element is touching the artboard edge! That is so annoying and produces an imperfect placement of my elements!

 commentedYep. Snapping is still totally broken in Illustrator.

 commentedThe snapping in Illustrator is just generally bad. I always have to go through every single artboard and fix up the edges, even if Illustrator is telling me that my objects are snapping to the edge.

 commentedStill an Issue in 24.3 If I need perfect alignment to edge I stop the shape 1 Grid BEFORE the edge and move it manually with the arrow keys... 
 It is driving me crazy on a daily basis.The same issue happens btw when moving a shape ALONG the Artboard edge, it does not snap. So yeah, I move it one grid away from the edge, move sideways with mouse where I want it to go, and hit the arrow key to align it back to the damn egde.

 commentedDuuuuuude, snapping doesn’t work because the artboard edge is messing up the snap. Frustrating!!

 commentedThe issue appears to be that the snapping is still broken when the cursor is near the artboard boundary, but is working when the cursor moves far enough away. That leaves a very tiny area where the behaviour works as desired. I've recorded a video demonstrating how this issue is simultaneously fixed and still broken: https://twitter.com/kitgrose/status/1224137775949025280

 commentedWhen moving objects / vertices, they snap to the artboard edge and move freely without aligning to the grid. Although this was supposedly fixed before, it is now broken again (version 23.1). Please see the following ticket for the issue:
