Snap to Objects

While editing, Orbit will snap to object points. 



The snap behaviour depends on the editing preferences. It&#039;s important to know to which objects will be snapped:

	*  To selected objects only. To snap on an object point, the target object needs to be selected. Otherwise the point will not snap to the exact position of the vertex.</description>
