Snapping

Snapping is often very helpful, but there are times when you need to adjust something and you don’t want it to snap. I’m creating a rotating background, which requires adding the same image over and over and then rotating it just enough so that it appears to rotate. However, “snap to” in rotate will not allow me to enter a value for rotate if it’s too close to a snapping value. For example, if the the position I want is 89.2 degrees, the field will take it, but as soon as I leave the entry field it jumps to 90.0 degrees. I’ve tried everything from editing directly in the Edit Geometry dropdown to the entry field next to Rotation: and it won’t work. There should be an option to turn off snapping for these occasions and then turn it back on when needed.

Should be in the Feature Requests forum, but +1 for me, too…
