Problems with snaps in xara xtreme
I don't know why, but for some reason the snap configuration changed on its own :confused:. When I move a photo the snap option takes me to the upper left corner of that photo. Also I can’t select and move the guide lines because the snap icon is always active even when I’m not over the guide line:mad:.
But I found the solution. Utilities > Options > Mouse > Magnetic Snap Radio (Radii), Change the big number to something like 3 pixels in both boxes. In my case it was on 60473pix and 41575pix.
Now it works fine. I hope that solution helps someone.:)

Thanks, mrsapo, and welcome to the forum. :)
Can't tell you why that happened, but I'm glad you figured out how to fix it.
Looking forward to hearing more from you —

I have to admit to being completely ignorant of the rulers, guides, snaps, etc. They never do what I think they should do but so far I haven't had to make anything that required precision placement. I made a note of your solution in my art notebook for the day when I do. Thanks.
