Fly-over snapping is a visual aid to help you see and use entity snaps more efficiently. When the Fly-over snapping option is set, progeCAD will display a colored marker at matching entity snap points as you move the crosshairs around the drawing.
Each entity snap has its own type of marker.
Marker | Entity snap |
---|---|
Endpoint Snap | |
Nearest Snap | |
Midpoint Snap | |
Center Snap | |
Perpendicular Snap | |
Tangent Snap | |
Quadrant Snap | |
Insertion Snap | |
| Point Snap |
| Intersection Snap |
| Apparent Intersection Snap |
When Fly-over snapping is enabled and multiple entity snaps are on, you can press TAB to cycle through the available entity snap points of the entities covered by the target box. For example, when the Endpoint and Midpoint snaps are set and the aperture box is on a line, pressing TAB will cycle between the line's closest endpoint and midpoint.
