Control Settings
These settings allow you to customize user interface controls based on your preferences.
Zoom into mouse position in Plan view
Using the Zoom tool in the Plan view will zoom into the point on the screen where you first click the mouse button. Otherwise, the zoom will be relative to the center of the screen.
Zoom into mouse position in Perspective view
Using the Zoom tool in the Perspective view will zoom into the point on the screen where you first click the mouse button. Otherwise, the zoom will be relative to the center of the screen.
Reverse mouse zoom direction
Reverses the zoom direction when using the Zoom tool or mouse wheel.
Mouse wheel zoom amount
Controls how far to zoom when using the mouse wheel.
Keyboard nudge distance
Distance the selected objects are moved when nudging them using the keyboard. See Moving Objects for details.
Auto pan speed
Controls how fast the view pans when the cursor reaches the edge of the screen.
Paste command moves objects to the current layer
Pasted objects will be moved to the current layer. Otherwise, pasted objects will be moved to the same layers they originated from. New layers will be automatically added if needed.
Enable move tool
The move tool simplifies object movement in fixed directions: left/right, forward/backward, and up/down. Use the small rectangle in the center to move objects horizontally (left/right and forward/backward) without changing their height.
Use legacy snap behavior when adding new shapes
In previous (pre-2023) versions of the software, curves were ignored when calculating perpendicular snaps. Curves are now included for the best accuracy. This option restores the old behavior.
