That just can’t be done at the moment – it’s the same for other node control handles elsewhere too. (Edit: This bit isn't true.)

If you look here: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/3794-ad-bezier-handle-snapping/
...you can see it’s been an outstanding request for a while now (since 2014). (Edit: This isn't true either, just ignore it.)

Bezier handle snapping with Node Tool has been implemented for several years now.

It's still not available when editing a warp mesh, hence this thread today.

Ah, yes, you’re correct.
There’s an “Align Handle Positions Using Snapping Options” button on the Context Toolbar when using the Node Tool.
I totally missed that – must have ‘sneaked in’ while I wasn’t watching, the cheeky wee blighter.
Earlier posts have been modified accordingly.
