“Moving objects on canvas should feel as fluid as sketching on paper. This update fixes long-standing friction and brings Snaptrude closer to that standard.”
- Aishwarya Arun, Product Specialist

What’s New

We’ve made improvements to how objects move in Snaptrude, making actions like repositioning spaces feel faster and more reliable.

View-Aware Movement

• Top View: Spaces now move parallel to their current storey—great for early massing.
• Front View: Moves objects vertically instead of pushing them into or out of the site.

Improved Axis Snapping

• Objects now snap cleanly to red, green, and blue axes even without pressing arrow keys.
• You can still use arrow keys to lock movement to a specific axis.

Better Picking Behavior

• Reduced accidental snapping to objects behind your selection.
• Smoother picking for overlapping spaces when using the Move tool (select-to-move still has some edge cases).

No More Spaces Dropping Below the Site

• Spaces will now stay on their correct level when moved—even when repositioning imported program blocks onto a site.

Bug Fixes

• Prevented spaces from unintentionally shifting below the site layer.
• Addressed erratic picking issues during move operations.
• Improved predictability when working with overlapping or grouped geometry.
