make snap faster

Anonymous
Not applicable
Gday everyone

just wondering If there is a way to make snap points snap faster as I use my chin for a mouse and it is difficult holding the cursor still waiting for the circle snap point to show.
I can do it but it takes me up to 5 minutes to get one snap point and it gets frustrating especially when doing dimensions.

any help would be appreciated

You may want to add your version of Archicad

It is a tough one to fine tune.
To small a time limit and you will get snap guides all over the place, too long a time limit and you will have to wait all the time.

There is also a keyboard shortcut to instantly place the snap guide regardless of the time setting.
It should be the Q or ' (tild) key - possibly both will work.
Move the mouse to the edge or node and then press the shortcut.
