Snapping properties
The snapping properties allow you to divide the scene into a grid and place the objects in the cells of the grid. This is a very useful technique to keep the objects properly aligned.
Enabled property: activates the snapping. You can change the value in the Inspector view with the
Ekey.Snapping Width and Height: is the size of the grid to snap the objects. You can change it in the Inspector view. Also, you can select an object and execute the Snap To Object Size command.
Context menu
The context menu of the scene shows the Snapping sub-menu with the snapping commands:
Toggle Snapping (
E).Snap To Object Size (
W). This command takes the size of the selected object and sets it as the snapping size values of the scene.Move Object Position commands. These translate the selected object in any direction by the snapping size (
Arrow keys) or 10x the snapping size (Shift+Arrow keys). If snapping is disabled, these commands translate the selected object by 1 or 10 pixels.
