This cheat is called moveobjects.on and you can add cheats by pressing either ctrl+shift+c for PC or cmd+shift+c on Mac. Items can still snap onto the grid. To prevent this from happening, move a counter and hold alt on PC or control on Mac. Place items on another counter and try to adjust their height by pressing 9 or 0.

Another trick you can use to make your space appear full is by using debug items. You will need to add the cheats bb.showhiddenobjects and bb.showliveeditobjects.
