Automatic Snapping

Automatic snapping is a feature that helps you align and draw lines or polygons precisely by automatically "snapping" them to specific angles or nearby elements, such as other lines or shapes.

When automatic snapping is enabled in Togal, it helps you draw lines and polygons at defined angle or length increments from each other. Snapping works with the following combinations:

  • Line to a polygon

  • Polygon to a line

  • Line to another line

  • Dimension line to a polygon or line

To enable automatic snapping

  1. Select an area or linear takeoff. Then click “Automatic snapping” on the panel at the bottom of your screen

  2. Choose whether to "Snap to angle" or "Snap to distance". Set the angle using the arrows, or type in the distance

    Note: When "Automatic Snapping" is turned on, you can press the Shift key to temporarily disable snapping and draw freeform lines.
