How to Use O-Snaps


Tips for Using O-Snaps:
Open the O-Snaps demo file found in the DGMatrix53 >
Demos folder and use the indicated O-Snap tools to practice
each function by re-creating the shape. 9 To turn on an O-Snap, click on its button so it is

highlighted in bright blue .


Primary-Level Skills
9 Although you’ll sometimes need to use two O-
Snaps at one time, it is always a good idea to
O-Snaps turn off all the O-Snaps you will not be using.
Do this by clicking again on any unwanted O-
Snaps to turn them from bright blue to gray
1 Go to the File menu; click on Open, and find .
DGMatrix53. Double click on Demos. Double click
on O-Snaps. Double click on O Snap Demo.
9 Always make sure that the O-Snap
button is on (highlighted in bright blue) when
you are going to use O-Snaps. This button is
the “master switch” for the O-Snaps. If it is off,
all the O-Snaps are off.

9 To make sure your O-Snaps will work


successfully, it is usually a good idea to turn off
Snap and
Ortho, since these both override O-Snaps.
Holding down the Shift key on your keyboard to
engage Ortho also overrides O-Snaps.

2 Practice using all of the O-Snaps that are


shown here. If at any time while working, the
cursor isn’t snapping to the desired location, simply

click on the O-Snap tool twice and try


again. Sometimes it just needs a little coaxing.
(Note: You do not need to quit the current command
to turn on or off the O-Snaps.)
