snap guide to path is this possible ?


Recommended Posts

Hi, fundamental need.

I have just drawn a few straight lines in the shape of a hollow T, and need to snap a horiz guide to the horiz line at lower left arm of the hollow T, I click on magnet it goes a shade darker (the contrast for that on/off is bad, how is that altered) and drag guide down from ruler but it has no snap to my horiz line, it snaps to a blob which is half way up the selection box but that is not my line.

I turn off the magnet and try again  . no different.

 

It is imperative we are able to snap guides to lines, or nodes on a line etc.

Hi,

In your snapping options (the white arrow next to the magnet) , make sure you have at least "Enable snapping" and "Snap to object bounding boxes" checked:

This will let you snap guides to objects.
