Snapping to middle of mesh outline

Anonymous

Hi

I have a rectangular mesh drawn in 2D; dimensions 300 x 600
I want to drawn a line starting from the midpoint of the 300, so at 150
However, I can't seem to detect a snap point to this point no matter what combination of snaps I turn on / off

Any clues?

Thanks
Ben

I only have 20 open at the moment but I drew a 300x600 mesh and I didn't have the half snap points either.
I drew a small slab and no snaps for that either.
Until I turned the snap guides off and then back on again.
Seems it got stuck somehow.

Now when I close and re-open Archicad it works straight away.
Just checked 21 and that was fine as well.

Ah - turning the snaps on and off seemed to do the trick. Thanks!
