Showing and hiding the linear snap tool

When the linear snap tool is configured to be displayed, the points to which the crosshairs will snap in the crosshairs detection area are marked by a symbol, and a line is drawn to the current crosshairs position. This provides better visual control.

To configure the linear snap tool to be displayed

1. Activate a tool where the system expects you to enter a point (e.g., Line).
2. In the Point Assistant, click Point snap options.
   

   You can activate the Point Assistant in the following ways:

   • The Point Assistant is provided on the shortcut menu. To activate it, all you need to do is click in the workspace or on an element with the right mouse button. In addition, various options are provided in the dialog line.
3. In the Point snap representation area, select the Display CursorTips - Linear snap option.
