NOTE You might get varying results if you have both the Intersection and Apparent
Intersection running object snaps turned on at the same time.
Parallel
Constrains a line segment, polyline segment, ray or xline to be parallel to
another linear object. After you specify the first point of a linear object, specify
the parallel object snap. Unlike other object snap modes, you move the cursor
and hover over another linear object until the angle is acquired. Then, move
the cursor back toward the object that you are creating. When the path of the
object is parallel to the previous linear object, an alignment path is displayed,
which you can use to create the parallel object.
NOTE Turn off ORTHO mode before using the parallel object snap. Object snap
tracking and polar snap are turned off automatically during a parallel object snap
operation. You must specify the first point of a linear object before using the parallel
object snap.
Select All
Turns on all object snap modes.
Clear All
Turns off all object snap modes.
3D Object Snap Tab (Drafting Settings Dialog Box)
Controls running object snap settings for 3D objects. With running object
snap settings, also called Osnap, you can specify a snap point at an exact
location on an object. When more than one option is selected, the selected
snap modes are applied to return a point closest to the center of the aperture
box. Press TAB to cycle through the options.
