Grid and Snap
SolidWorks snaps to sketch geometry on the fly. For example, as the
pointer approaches a line endpoint, the pointer changes to recognize the
endpoint so you can choose to select it.
SolidWorks offers a display grid and snap grid while in sketch mode
and in drawings. You can align the grid to a model edge and you can snap
to an angle. The grid and snap capabilities are not often used in SolidWorks
since dimensions and relations provide the required accuracy.
