The snap to edge option under the snap to object in the constraint palette is often very handy, and often it is not. I turn it on and off 20-30 times every day, yet it is hidden in a submenu. I would like it to become a tool palette item in its own right - or a keyboard shortcut to activate it. Please.

The following VectorScript will toggle it:

SetPref(48, NOT GetPref(48));

or you can do

SetPref(48, true);

to enable it.

You can create a plug-in menu command with a script, and then assign it a keyboard shortcut.

If you want feedback for the current state, add at the end:

Message('Snap points ',GetPref(48));

I know there's a tendancy for people to shy away from scripting, but I'd like to point out one program that actually encourages it with much success: Photoshop.

Their actions pallete is really just a macro writer, and I think this would be the greatest thing for VW to have. I'd love to be able to start task recording, go through a few steps, and have VW record the whole process for me.
