Drag & Snap mode

The Drag & Snap mode is particularly meant for setting up a layout, for moving loaded components to their desired location in the layout, but without the need to switch to the Layout Builder Workbench.

In the 3D View it opens the drag Pie menu:

• Activate the manipulator
• Open the layer manager
• Toggle the Show/Hide
• Change the Operation mode
• Add existing components to the project

Switching to the Snap & Drag Operation mode automatically activates to drag (reposition) a component. It moves the component in the open layout.

Picking a component will drag it always on a 2D plane. By default this will be the root XY plane. When however a 2D view plane has been set active, the dragging will be in that activated 2D plane.

Start		Snap & drag

Dragging a component and pressing the

 key simultaneously will display the layout grid. The component is then placed on a grid point when dragging it.
