Snap Ortho

In one sentence: Snaps the cursor to positions at 45° intervals from the previous drawn point — enforcing horizontal, vertical, or 45° diagonal lines.

Overview

Workbench: Draft
Toolbar: Draft Snap
Command: Draft_Snap_Ortho

Indicator: Dashed yellow line at the ortho direction from the last point.

When the cursor is near an ortho direction (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, 270°, 315°), it locks to that angle. Snap Ortho enforces straight axis-aligned or 45° diagonal segments.
