    Description of Capx

    Read above.

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • Step 1 - Enable 'snap to grid'.
    • Step 2 - Place a sprite in the layout.
    • Step 3 - Resize the sprite, for example twice as big/small.
    • Step 4 - Move the resized sprite.

    Observed Result

    The sprite doesn't snap well, and ruins the functionality of the 'snap to grid' feature.

    Expected Result

    The sprite snaps in like the original size so it can blend in with the rest of the layout.

  • That is because of the position of the origin Image-Point. If your grid is for example 32x32 and your sprite 64,64 and the origin is in the middle it will snap in the middle of the sprite. If you make your sprite now 70*70 it will still snap still in the middle, but it will overlap 6 pixel over the grid. If you want that your sprite to snap with a specific corner you have to place the origin Image-Point to that position

  • Closing as no .capx provided and video does not show any evidence of a bug; snapping is relative to the origin.
