Bug Description
In the footprint editor if one drags the endpoint of a line (example courtyard outline) when using angle restricting mode (crtl plus drag) the new point is nearly always off grid.
I noticed this behavior in both the current nightly and version 5.0 (both on linux. 5.0 on ubuntu 16.04 and nightly on fedora 28)
This is even true if one drags a point that is on grid in horizontal or vertical direction. (so along a grid line)
It would be a very helpful feature if the points could stay on grid at least if dragged in one of the orthogonal directions. (maybe even if dragged along a 45 degree angle as well. But that is a direction that is not used so often)
This creates problems like in this pull request of mine: https:/
