Object snaps are used to select accurate points of objects while drawing. They can be enabled, or disabled individually by clicking on their respective buttons on toolbar no.4. Active snaps will be indicated by a blue frame on the button. Object snap function can also be activated or deactivated completely by using the F3 key of the keyboard.


The snaps will only be active while in drawing mode and will not interfere in other cases. While in drawing mode, active object snap points will be indicated by various shapes in green colour by default. The colour can be changed using the Palette options button, see Toolbar No.3, Other settings.

Object snaps will not be indicated on external references. 


Available object snap points are, in order from top to bottom:
