Snapping

[chirpy]

On iPad in Affinity Designer 2, even when I have the main Snapping button toggled off, if the Force Pixel Alignment toggle is on it will snap to pixels when trying to move objects on the canvas. I have to go into the Snapping Options and manually uncheck the Force Pixel Alignment toggle and only then will it stop snapping to pixels. I would think that toggling Snapping on or off should disable ALL of the options under Snapping?

Not a "bug", this has always been "by design". In the desktop version it's the same, with "Force Pixel Alignment" even being a separate toolbar button.

Then it should not be under the overall Snapping button on iPad either and should be a separate option. That is confusing when options under a main option do not turn off when a main option that controls it is turned off.

Fair enough.

Thanks for your report @chirpy!

As above the current behaviour of the app is correct, however I certainly understand that the UI could be clearer here - so I'll be sure to pass this feedback through to our development team
