| Summary | 0003538: "snap to..." options should be placed in guideline manager and in configuration | ||||
| Description | there should be some improvements for snapping: 1. "snap to..." options should be placed in guideline manager and in configuration (guidelines panel for both - scribus and document - config) not in menu only 2. "snap to baseline grid" for objects would be great help in positioning. option should be also placed on panel in scribus/document configuration (see 0002899) | ||||

While I agree with # 2, I don't see much sense in # 1. The way it is now, you can quickly enable or disable snapping. If you need it faster, you can assign a keyboard shortcut. From my personal experience I can tell that while working on a document, it is often necessary to switch snapping on and off. So why add this to the preferences when it can be done much faster? |

i don't remember the last time, i was working without snapping to guides. my all apps that allow snapping are configured with default snapping on. it's my way of working (positioning with guidelines, measurements pallette, keyboard - to create precise layout), that's why i asked for it. now i have to remember to turn on snapping in scribus, and i'like to have possibility to configure scribus for my needs. adding options i asked for is not revolution, it's just config option (just few checkboxes in config window) |

baseline snap: requested in 0002899 config options for snap settings: I agree that interface options like this should be able to have a global default setting for new docs. Some people will usually want it on, others off. I think the same applies to the preserve-aspect-ratio button in properties (as I requested in bug 0003052). This will make scribus more convenient for everyone, and for different circumstances. :) |

Reminder sent to: louisdesjardins, since there already is a RFE for 2 (base line snapping), only number 1 has remained. What do you think of it? |
|
|
If users say they'd prefer it to have it this way, why not? Seems to make sense to me ... now. |
|
|
"1" is absolutely neccessary for me - as i answered christoph's note |
|
|
i'm not sure that # 1 is needed. imo, scribus should enable by default the snapping to the guides (i think it's already the case; in the past it was for sure not the case) and, i don't really see a need for turning them off on a per document or per settings basis. if i understand correctly the original poster, this is what he wants: being able to get the guides turned on for all his new documents... i mean: if you don't want your things to snap to guides, don't created guides :-) |

Allowing what the original poster wants is ok to me. It’s only more convenient. Guides (snapping or not) can be there for many reasons we don’t have to discuss. I also like RFE # 2 "snap to baseline grid for objects". Snapping text is obvious, but surrounding objects, it’s just great! |

Renamed ticket so it's more specific. Also any responses concerning ref '2' (snap to baseline grid) should be made in 0002899 |
