|---|---|---|

Tips
The “Snap Moving Vertex to Guide” feature activates when you drag a vertex over a guide line, causing the line to change to “green” and snap to the vertex. This allows for precise alignment with the position set in the guide settings.
TIPS
Items in the guide menu can be assigned shortcuts.
