Hi,
I'm not much of a professional developer, but as a user I'm telling you I love it! Finally I can make Inkscape behave like all the other applications that I use when it comes to snapping.
The most intuitive settings for my personal taste where:
Enable indicator Delay: 0 Only snap to closest: False Weight: 1
On Document prefs, I ticked everything (pertaining to snapping behaviour) and set all three radio buttons to proximity with radi as follows:
Snap to objects: when closer than 20 px Snap to grids: when closer than 10 px Snap to guides: when closer than 20 px
This makes snapping near instant and hard to snap out again while pushing knots around the canvas. If snapping gets in the way, there's always the "%" shortcut for disabling it on the fly.
I'd like to propose consolidating all snapping prefs into Inkscapes's global preferences. I never felt there was much use for setting the snapping behaviour on a per-document basis.
Thanks for implementing those features.
