Old Bruce Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Kind of counter intuitive in that they snap to guides and margins etc but other objects won't snap to them. They got it half right. Make another object and see if it snaps to the ones with it off.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 That is interesting, and it works the same way in Designer, by the way (i.e., it's not an addition, just a well-hidden option that I had never seen). An object that is "excluded from snapping" is not a snapping candidate for other objects. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_B_C Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 Ha! This is hilarious. I have never seen this option before. And given the current functionality, I would suggest that you rename this option to “Snapping target” with a tick mark (default: ticked). As for a bug, the @2x crossed magnet icon is used on non-Retina screens in Publisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted October 10, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 10, 2018 I think the wording is what is causing the confusion as it does seem to suggest it is excluding the object from snapping in general but what it is actually doing is excluding it as a snapping candidate. The tooltip doesn't really help either A_B_C 1 How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
