How to OSNAP only to defined layers?

Peter2

I know that ...
- there are the settings to ignore OSNAP on PDF, DWF and so
- there is the "cycling selection" and
- Autocad does not have the functionality, but maybe ..

Is there a way in Bricscad to
- OSNAP only to defined elements / layers and/or to
- ignore defined elements / layers in OSNAP?

For example - set layer "Water" to visible and to selectable, but not to be "OSNAPED"?

Thanks for advice?

This is not possible out of the box, but it is fairly simple to create a .NET plugin that implements an OsnapOverrule to skip osnap on entities filtered any way you want.

Hi Owen

.NET is beyond my knowledge. Are there ways in Lisp?

If happy to work with only layers use LAYERISO can have 1 or more layers only selectable, use settings I turn off non selected layers rather than fade.

thanks, but I didn't mentioned it: The layers which I don't want to snap must stay visible - so "layer off" and "layer freeze" are not possible.

Layiso is a different command all together its designed to be used as a temporary on/off just try it
