Hi Jabier,

You can currently only snap to things that are permanent and part of a document, such as an item/guide/grid/page border. Something like a "previous measurement location" is only known within the measurement tool, so if you want to snap to that you will have to handle that in the tool itself.

Best regards,

Diederik

Hi Diederik, thanks very much for your offer.

Now i have a cuestion:
Could I snap to a line/point that is not a/in item - I want to snap to
previous meassure origin, and to some points created in the meassure-.

This also could be useful to snap to other objects like illustrator
smart guides.

All the best, Jabier.
