Your program creates some misleading screens where the snap options (i.e. endpoint, intersections etc) are concerned.
One example of this is when you toggle on the slide text command [ TT icon] the indented snaps that we may have turned on at the time will no longer be depressed. This suggests that there are no snaps activated. However when you activate the text slide some? all? of the snaps initially active before this routine was started will again become active. The net result is the text you are sliding may end up in a totally different location than you intended it to be. ( If you happen to cross a line with the pick box with the endpoint active is one example).
This problem basically stems from the fact that your programmers have not dealt with settings that we may have active when you initiate a routine. As much as possible any settings that we have active/or inactive prior to initiating a routine should be returned to that state when the routine is finished.
Alternatively when you deem it necessary to initiate some additional routine to carry out a calculation then that same additional routine should be deactivated when your primary routine is finished.
Having these unexpected results happening a 100 times a day while working with your program can be very frustrating.
Again I am placing this situation on your discussion board as others may be experiencing the same problem but may not have figured out why it is happening.
I sincerely hope that these problems are being dealt with as you become aware of them..
