Snapping to Objects.

I wish there was toggle that will allow to snap to Objects lines and points. Right now we can only snap to predefined points.

I don't have V9.0 (still on V8.1) but wasn't there a new GDL command for HOTLINE as well as the existing HOTSPOT command?

Of course these still need to be scripted into your objects (which could be a whole other issue).

a timely wish indeed since it will come true very soon! there are some good enhancements to element snaps in 10 . . . particularly when combined with guide lines . . .
