Ctrl key is suggested simply to closely mimic grid override in draw, but is otherwise arbitrary. This behaviour occurs with the grid switched off. Propose that the ctrl key when pressed and held during dragging should temporarily override this feature, and that in addition a master on/off switch be placed in options > writer > grid.
Request that the feature in writer that causes objects / frames / pictures etc when being dragged to snap back to anywhere on a horizontal or vertical line from the objects starting position be togglable to facilitate pixel accurate positioning. If you could do this in writer with this 'snap' feature (or indeed the grid), it'd be great! Just thinking aloud, but can anyone think of other functionality this would get in the way of? Perhaps after some discussion, if nobody can think of an obvious reason it shouldn't work, we might suggest it as a feature? I can't imagine it would be hard to implement.Īnyway, if anyone has any ideas how I can get around this.
I had a look around in the help there, and it said you can hold 'ctrl' to override the grid in draw. I think they're draw's global settings, besides which even if they were 'tied' to a specific object presumably settings won't survive a file export, and you can't copy / paste a drawing into writer. That's exactly the feature I want - that lower set of buttons marked 'snap', but they only affect draw. Good suggestion huw, has given me some interesting leads, but not solved it.
