Hugo Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I am experiencing trouble with snaps in 3D symbols and extrudes. I am drawing a polyline to recreate the section of a column I plan to extrude. This polyline has many vertex and points, it looks similar to a star. While it is a polyline, snaps work perfect. The cursor detects all corners, centers, midpoints and others. I can draw with absolute precision. But once I extrude it, it looses most of it's snap points. Only some vertex work, and I can't snap lines to center points or others. Do I need to change some preference, or this is the way it works? Quote Link to comment
Kaare Baekgaard Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 By double-clicking the 'snap to object' tool icon, you can get snap to centerpoints. Quote Link to comment
Hugo Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 Kaare, Snap to object is on. That is why I ask. Quote Link to comment
Kaare Baekgaard Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I am expressing myself poorly: The 'snap to object' in my experience is almost like 2 tools: By double clicking it, I invoke a dialogue, that enables me to snap to 3D objects and 3D centerpoints. For some reason, however, snapping to 3D cornerpoints becomes more tricky, when this option is 'on'. So I find mtself constantly turning this option on and off. Quote Link to comment
