    AccuSnap is not working for a given tool

       
      Applies To 
       
      Product(s): MicroStation
      Version(s): V8 2004 or later
      Environment:  N\A
      Area:  Drawing Aids
      Subarea:  Snaps
      Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group
       

    Problem

    AccuSnap is not working for a given tool.
    Tools currently noted:

    • Place Fence
    • Place Stream Line String
    • Set Display Depth

    Reason

    With these tools, it is common to want to be slightly outside and away from the nearby element(s). Accusnap's magnet snap can disrupt this, so accusnap was left out by default.

    Solution

    Hold CTRL+SHIFT to toggle the use of Accusnap.
