== Overview ==

Use the snapping icons in the toolbox (one the left side of the viewer pane) to turn snapping on and off.

Right-click, or press and hold, an icon to see a menu of options.

Snap to grid:
    Snap to points on the [construction plane|construction_plane].
    
Snap to primitives:
    Snap to curves and edges.

Multi-snap:
    Snap to different things simultaneously. Open the icon's menu and choose __Multi-snapping options__ to set priorities for individual types of snapping.
    
== Options menu ==

Snap to templates:
    At the [Geometry level|/basics/objects], you can snap to [templated geometry|/nodes/sop] (geometry that is made visible for reference purposes, using the template flag).
    
Snap to other objects:
    At the [Geometry level|/basics/objects], you can snap to geometry from _other objects_, not just the object you are inside.
    
Depth snapping:
    If you turn this option off, you can snap to reference geometry, but the point stays on the [construction plane|construction_plane].

Options:
    Open the [snapping options window|/ref/windows/snapoptions] containing additional options. For multi-snapping, this window lets you give each type of snapping different priorities so, for example, snapping to points overrides snapping to edges.
