Hello Andy,

There is some logic to it. When a user changes active tool, the new tool may not have
any need
for snap (such as zoom and pan). It could be thought of as a mode within a tool,
rather than a
persistent mode in Pro. Once you get used to Pro's behaviour, a quick stab of the 'S'
key is no
big deal.
One of the items in my own wish list which was presented to MI recently was the
ability to zoom
in and out while staying within a particular tool. ie. a non-tool based zoom. This
would be really
handy when tracing polygons, etc. to ensure that start/end points are where they
should be. If MI
took this suggestion on, you might be able to eliminate the need to change to the
zoom/pan tool
and snap would never auto-deactivate.
