Hi, i'm learning houdini and i'm wondering how it's possible to model with precision?for example how can i be sure that two edges or points are exactly aligned? etc.

Snapping should do that. The magnet icons on the left side of the viewport

Hi MartybNz, i don't know why they don't work for me, i was trying to build the 4 sides of a cube(except the bottom and top,i wanted to design something like a flute just for fun but i couldn't align the sides of the flute with the base, snapping just works for one of the sides, when i copy paste a new side from the first one the snapping doesn't work with the new one, it's always a little right or left

Try the FuseSop, it wil lock together points too.

Snapping is an area that SideFx have mentioned they have worked on in the next Houdini too.
