Ability to turn off snap only whilst key is held down
Posted: 12 Jun 2022
I did a quick search and couldn't find anything on this.
Using better touch tool on Mac (probably there are Windows equivalents), you can trigger a shortcut when you press a button down, but also trigger a shortcut when the key goes up again.
This allows you to turn snap off whilst you press and hold a key, and have it come on again while you release the key. This way, snap stays on all the time except for those occasions when you want a little more control. Super useful, and I use it all the time.
I do the same with:
Switching to razor key - press and hold whilst cutting, then release to go back to normal arrow.
Zoom to selection, press and hold, select area to zoom in, then release.
I just thought I'd mention it in case anyone else finds it useful.
