Disable snapping to point cloud points

Unfortunately, the fact that ArchiCAD wants to fit the elements to each point really slows down and hinders accurate, nicely edited work.
It would be nice to have a simple solution that would enable the fitting to the points of the point cloud to be turned on and off.

 

The switched off points would allow for faster and more accurate editing.

 

Thanks in advance, it would be a great help.

This can be achieved by placing the cloud in a design option?

Placing the point cloud on a design option only helps in the sense that it allows us to easily toggle its visibility on and off, and that works fine for now. However, a better solution would be if the point cloud remained visible, but during editing or model building, the tool wouldn't snap to every single point of the cloud. Unfortunately, this currently makes our work more difficult, as it’s hard to perform “idealized” or “rounded” editing.

Hmm, I was thinking the possibility to disable selection of other than elements in the active design option also disables snapping, but maybe I'm misremembering.
