Hello Ash, Obviously SNAP is not applicable/needed when panning around a map with the Grabber tool. However, I'm not sure how your snap crosshair remains on the map. Surely when you move you pointer to select the Grabber Tool, it disconnects from objects on the map and the crosshair disappears?
I have heard of some people with high-spec graphics cards, or laptop internal graphics modules, giving some off screen artefacts when tracing, panning, scrolling, etc. Maybe your problem is related to this.

(if so, anyone got a quick fix for what to enter?) ash. --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 5089 --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 5098
