muelli75 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Hi! Im using Publisher 1.10.4 and Beta 1.10.0.1115 on Mac. I want do copy a textbox and place it directly beside the sourcebox. In a wellknown DTP-app I have to click on the sourcebox, than I drag it by mouse and holding the ALT- and the SHIFT-key directly beside the sourcebox. The destinationbox snaps to the border of the sourcebox - it fits perfect without any space. In Affinity Publisher Im missing this behaviour. The box is copied like above - but the snap-function is missing. If I duplicate the box and move it after the duplication-process closley to the source - it snaps to the source as expected before. Please fix - thank you! Quote Regards, Martin iMac 27", 2017/Big Sur 11.2.2 MacMini M1/BigSur 11.2.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opt-drag is used to override the snapping in purpose, as the bottom line tool tips point out: muelli75 1 Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
