I asked about this functionality 2 years ago. Are you able to add the possibility to change the cursor type to crosshair?
It will be the huge improvement of working with large projects, specially with the precised allocation of the blocks. The rulers on the edges of the working fields also will be helpful.

Best Regards
Maciej

Hi Maciej,

There may be existing functionality that will help you do what you want.

If you want symbols to be placed at even, repeated intervals, without using guidelines etc then you can use the drawing's Properties Grid to set Grid | Number of Snaps to 1/[interval] expressed as a decimal e.g. if you want an interval of 10 gridpoints use 0.1 (i.e. 1/10) and if you want 20 gridpoints use 0.05 (i.e. 1/20).

I imagine you'd generally set this in the X axis only and it would make it very easy to space symbols regularly even in very large drawings when zoomed out a very long way.

I hope this is helpful.

Kind regards,
Rob Robinson
