Hi,

 Yes, it's right unfortunately. I guess it should be reported as defect. 
 Rousenator said: i have to use center snap to achieve that and that has reduced functionality in my opinion. 
 Another solution is to define and use multisnap, thay are designed exactly for these situations. 
 Rousenator said: Is this problem going to be fixed 
 I am not Bentley, so I am not able to answer such question. But in general the problem has to be logged at first and because obody from Bentley has done it yet, I recommend to create Service Ticket (and to mentioned this discussion in the ticket). 
 Rousenator said: toolbox that has the snap divisior in it rather than having to key iy in? 
 I prefer to use key-ins (and shortcuts) personally, they are nearly always faster than any icons, but that's subjective. You can use AccuDraw shortcut "K" that opens Keypoint Snap Divisor dialog. 
 Is there any reason why the divisor is set to 1? Probably all users I know leave use default value 2, because it's handy to snap to ends and midpoint. 
 With regards, 
 Jan

Hi, 
 the problem is caused by snap divisor value. Because it's set to 1, text is snapped only at the bounding box corners. 
 Change snap divisor to 2 (key-in is ky=2) and it will return back the snap in the text middle points.
