Setting snap grid spacings

J Wilwert
J Wilwert over 16 years ago

Hi,

I am using a skill function to redefine my X and Y snap spacings - because using "e" and filling in the form is too cumbersome! 

So, I define the variables xsnap and ysnap, and then:

                hiGetCurrentWindow()~>xSnapSpacing = int( xsnap )
                hiGetCurrentWindow()~>ySnapSpacing = int( ysnap )

Using skill, is there a better way?

THANKS,

John Wilwert

    Hi Andrew,

    You're absolutely right, sorry, my sincere apologies.

    I have changed the code on our systems, however, I am unable to change the code here on the forum. Is it possible for me to edit the code in the original post?

    Once again, sorry for this mistake.

    With kind regards,

    Sjoerd
