Greetings,
I can't seem to get Snap Lock to work, maybe I'm doing something wrong?
I select a snap say for instance end. Good all endpoints are snapped. Then I enable Snap Lock (command line SQ or by clicking the button) and choose say Middle. Now only mid points are will snap! What happened to endpoints? Seems like the snap lock isn't working. I would expect once snap lock is engaged all selected snaps would appear selected in the toolbox until they are toggled off or snap lock is disabled.
Where do you suppose I have gone wrong?

Hi,

below Application Preferences you can set multiple snaps. QCAD will snap to all selected snaps.


If you now select a single snap it will override the mentioned snap collection. But only one time (next snap).
The snap lock will lock this single snap until you unlock it again what means you can use it as long as you need it.

Ahhh.. so if I understand you correctly Snap Lock holds the last selected snap through tool changes. Ok, thanks.
