I've been on google for a while now and not being able to find my answer. I'm thinking I either don't understand the google results or my question hasn't been asked yet. I'm looking for a way to cycle through snap-modes. Fx [CTRL] + [Mouse wheel] for cycling between "near snap"/"keypoint snap"/"midpoint snap" and so on and so forth.
I'm using Microstation Connect.
Best regards,

Why do you want to do that? Wouldn't setting up a 'Multi-snap' with the options required make sense?
In addition to the multi-snap suggestion, there are also the keyboard shortcuts. I typically leave keypoint snap active and use keyboard shortcuts to change the snap mode for the next data point.
C - Center
N - Nearest
I - Intersection
K - Keypoint (can change divisor here to)
There's no built-in way to "cycle" through snap modes (there's quite a few snap modes and there are probably only a few you use regularly)...

But these don't always work. Quite often when starting a tool I have tried to use a shortcut to get to a particular snap and it doesn't work. I then have to rethink how to get to where I want.
Stuartw - when you say 'these don't always work' - does AccuDraw have focus when you enter the shortcut? If not, the shortcut is not recognised.

To use keyboard shortcuts, make sure focus is either at Home or the AccuDraw dialog, and if it's not hit ESC, F11, or F12
