1. Yes I have Snap to Objects enabled. It only seems to apply to moving things and creating shapes, not creating lines. For example, how would I draw a line from the centre of a circle to the corner of a square?

1. Draw a circle.
2. Draw a square box.
3. Select snap to shapes.
4. With the straight line tool, start a line approximately in the centre of the circle and extend it to the require box corner - this will 'snap'.
5. Release the line.
6. Click on the start of the line and move it about until it 'snaps' on the centre.
7. Release the line.

P.S. Changing the centre to a tangent is much more challenging.
