Automatic aquiring of Smart Points lost...

[Horst M.]

Hallo,

I have Problems to automatic aquire Smart Points/edges by stopping a given time on a Snap point in VW2010 on my Macbook Pro.

The feature is set on, and the time the mouse has to stop is set to 2sec.

but the point(s) don't get aquired.

I have to press "T" or "G" to aquire the points manually.

Also in the Preferences everything seems to be set correctly.

Any Idea what's wrong?

In SmartCursor Settings, under Category, click on Object and make sure the appropriate check boxes are checked.

They are set.

The same settings on the Mac Pro work fine...

(I compared all SmartCursor Settings on both machines)

The settings also worked on the MacBook Pro since a couple of days ago.

I tried even reebooting, and making a new blank File

weird....

Try switching to a different user.

You could also try clicking the Reset button in SmartCursor Settings, then redo the settings.

Juhu.

Reset, and redoing the settings

brought the automatic aquireing back.

Problem solved.

Thanks.

...nevertheless weird
