Hello all,

I just read the great feature on 'get snap' in February's Cheap Tricks. Unfortunately I can't seem to make it work in Datacad 10.

Holding down the shift key while snapping does nothing and no pop-up menu appears. Is there a setting I'm missing? I usually work in Dir/Dist and have all the usual objsnaps on.

I'd love to get snapping if someone can point me in the right direction

Thanks
amy

Amy -

Make sure that the middle button (or wheel) of your mouse is set for "Middle Button" in the mouse set-up software.

I just tested it, and my wheel was set for "Zoom". Once I changed it (through the mouse properties) to "Middle Button" it worked as advertised.

Good luck!

Thanks Alan,

Our mouse settings were a bit different but I've found the right setting.

Much appreciated
Amy
