Make sure you use an object from the toolbar "Legacy Circles and Ovals". Enable
Grid. Set (temporarily) the subdivision of the grid to 1 so that snapping is
better visible. Enable "Snap to grid".

Select "Circle" tool. Draw a circle by dragging from left-top to bottom-right.
Notice how the size jumps to the grid point.

Now hold down the Alt-key from before dragging until after dragging. You will
now draw the circle starting from circle center. Notice that the size of the
circle changes continuously and does not snap to the next grid point.

If it is not a bug, it is surely a valid enhancement request, that holding down
Alt-key should not disable "snap to grid".

The Alt-key for creating and resizing from center works for all shapes but
custom shapes. That is a bug 76073.

The Shift-key generally toggles the "fixed ratio width to height" behavior and
can be combined with the Alt-key.
