Since build 393, holding down the Shift key while dragging an object now works with angular snapping every 15 degrees  SOLVED

Post by rakunavi »

Hello all,

I have belatedly noticed that since build 393, holding down the Shift key while dragging an object now works with angular snapping every 15 degrees. Since it does not seem to be listed in the version history, this is just a FYI.

Thanks to the development team for their continuous improvement, not only in this case.

Best regards,

That's a great find, Rakunavi, and a major improvement when moving things around on a page.

Now if we only could get linear and angular snapping with callouts please?

Snap to right angles for callouts.

Hello, David.P

Looking back, we still have this ticket for that purpose:

RT#3627: FR::Snap to right angles for callouts

I will see about increasing its priority.

Kind regards,
