Use this function to draw [wikitr:/Help/Concepts/Object#Segment segment] that is parallel, perpendicular or at precisely defined angles (30°, 45°, 60°, 90°) degrees to the **base segment**. === Basic usage === 1. Activate [wiki:Help/Action/Draw Draw mode] as usual 1. To enable ''Angle Snapping'': * press `A` (i.e. `A` second time) * use [wikitr:/Help/Menu/Edit Edit menu] > ''Angle snapping'' * activate ''Angle snapping'' item from the [wikitr:/Help/StatusBar#anglemenu status bar pop-up menu] When enabled, [wikitr:/Help/StatusBar status bar] with angle with be highlighted in bright green. 3. To select ''base segment'': * click `Right mouse click` on segment you want to use as reference OR * move mouse over segment **while holding** `Ctrl` 1. Angle snapping mode will ''snap angle'' of the new segments ''to predefined list of angles'' - thus it's name [[Image(Help/Action/Draw:ex1-anglesnapping-way-along-segment.gif​,link=)]] === Angles === You can choose the direction of next segment to make specific angle between segments (0,30,45,90, degrees etc.). [[Image(Help/Action/Draw:ex2-anglesnapping-degrees.gif,link=)]] === Base segment can be changed as many times as you want === [[Image(Help/Action/Draw:ex3-anglesnapping-change-base-segment.gif,link=)]] === Base segment will be preserved while drawing mode is on === Pay attention how "Draw mode" was **NEVER** disabled during this illustration: [[Image(Help/Action/Draw:ex4-anglesnapping-base-segment-preserved-untill-mode-disabled-or-segment-changed.gif,link=)]] === Snapping to nodes of the drawn way === (stub) Note that it will snap to the nodes only based on 90° angles and regardless of the distance. === Advanced settings === To choose angles, disable showing helper geometry, or disable snapping, use right-click on Angle symbol in statusbar and select corresponding item in [wikitr:/Help/StatusBar#anglemenu popup menu].
