This problem is still not solved and I find it very annoying while working on complex drawings.
I finally decided to look for a simpler example hoping it will help.
I've tried different snapping options but the problem is always present.
Anyway, my options are: "Enable snap indicator" selected, "Delay" 0 ms, "Only snap the node closest to the pointer" not selected, "Weight factor" 0.5, "Snap the mouse pointer..." not selected.
Follow this:
- open ctrl-snap.svg (zoom is at 150%, if you zoom in the problem may eventually disappear);
- select node tool (F2);
- select the red segment's lower node (the one over the black segment);
- grab it and ctrl-drag it vertically down toward the circle: while you stay near the vertical, the node keeps snapping to its original position; if you move horizontally away from the vertical, the movement becomes correct;
And now another problem (don't know if it's related but it seems to be triggered by this one, at least):
- let the node snap to its original position (just move the pointer to the vertical and release it);
- clicking away, deselect the segment (you'll have to click twice: one for deselecting the node, the second to deselect the segment; or press esc twice);
- if you didn't do something else meanwhile (if you did, please close and reopen the file a do only this sequence), you shouldn't be able to select the red segment clicking on it, even if switching to the select tool (F1); you can only drag-select it or select the other black objects; after zooming in or out selection is possible again.
I'm waiting for confirmation that this problem doesn't affect only me.
Thanks.
