snapping disabled?!

[lowkey]

did you look at the UI buttons on the statusline ?! maybe some snapping mode has been locked there ?

this used to happen to me sometimes and i wasn't even aware of, because i always work using the hotbox only. :hmm:

Hmmm, maybe you are right. How can i unlock it?

Bye Migi

[lowkey]

well, simply click on it to de-select your current snapping mode !

maybe you accidentally selected a different keyboard-layout or changed the custom hotkeys without knowing ?

[Migibutt]

Hmmm, this doesnt work. Also it hasnt anything to do with the hotkeys. For example. I have a poly cube and want to snap one vertex to another using one direction, let's say the x-direction. So when i enabled point snapping and i want to move the vertex now, it moves smoothly, like if snapping is disabled. BUT, snapping works when I use snapping in all directions at once (yellow circle). So i guess, somehow...the x, y, z directions of my snapping are messed up. Only directly snapping vertex to a vertex works.
Its the same with the other snapping options (grid...etc).

Bye Migi:hmm:

OMG! I thought i was the only one this happened to. I have the same problem and haven't found a solution yet. :thumbsdow

try move tool option box and disable retain component spacing check box in the snapping section

[gundog]

try global opposed to local

[Migibutt]

Wohoo! :beer:

Thx very much people! Its really true, that you have to turn off
"retain component Spacing" AND "world" (move) under modify->transformations tools-> move tool.

Again....BIG THX. You really saved me.:D
