These snapping features are super useful!

Surface Snapping<\/h2>\n

While dragging in the center using the Translate Tool<\/span>, you can hold Shift<\/span> and Control<\/span><\/span> (Command<\/span> on Mac) to snap the object to the intersection of any Collider<\/span>. This makes precise positioning of objects incredibly fast.<\/p>\n

Look-At Rotation<\/h2>\n

While using the Rotate Tool,<\/span> you can hold Shift<\/span> and Control<\/span><\/span> (Command<\/span> on Mac) to rotate the object towards a point on the surface of any Collider<\/span>. This makes orientation of objects relative to one another simple.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
