Using Snaps
How to use Snaps.
The Snaps tab can be accessed by selecting the Snaps icon from the Status Bar on the bottom edge. The Snaps tab allows you to choose a Snap mode. Selecting a Snap mode allows you to choose how a point on the model will be defined when you use a tool which requires precise location of a point, such as the measure tool.
From the Snaps tab, you can choose one of the following Snap
modes:
- Keypoint, which causes a tentative point to snap to a keypoint on an element.
- Intersection, which causes a tentative point to snap to the intersection between elements.
- Center, which causes a tentative point to snap to the center or centroid of an element.
- Nearest, which causes a tentative point to snap to the point closest to the pointer on an element.
