OSNAP

The F3 key activates/deactivates the osnap mode.

Since QAD version 3.0.4 osnap will be run on the snap layers enabled by QGIS (current layer, all layers, only snap selected layer).

To change the osnap mode:

  1. When a command ask for a point press CTRL + right mouse button to choose a different snap mode.
  2. When a command ask for a point type in the text window:
    "NONE" = no snap
    "END" = endpoints of each segment
    "END_PL" = endpoint of the entire polyline
    "MID" = midpoint
    "CEN" = center (centroid)
    "NOD" = point object
    "QUA" = quadrant point
    "INT" = intersection
    "INS" = insertion point
    "PER" = perpendicular point
    "TAN" = tangent
    "NEA" = closest point
    "APP" = apparent intersection
    "EXT" = Extension
    "PAR" = Parallel
    "INT_EXT" = intersection on extension
    "PR" = progressive distance (may be followed by a number to set a progressive distance different from default)
  3. Using the setvar command to set the OSMODE variable with a combination a bit using the following schema:
    0 = None
    1 = endpoint
    2 = midpoint
    4 = center (centroid)
    8 = point object
    16 = quadrant point
    32 = intersection
    64 = insertion point
    128 = perpendicular point
    256 = tangent
    512 = closest point
    1024 = clear all object snaps
    2048 = apparent intersection
    4096 = extension
    8192 = parallel
    16384 = osnap disabled
    65536 = progressive distance
    131072 = intersection on extension
    2097152 = endpoints of the entire polyline
  4. Run DSETTING command
