Hello
I have been working with catia v5 for several years and over time I got problems with worn out fingers, hands and arms.
There are many things in the interface (assembly and part design) that would have made catia more healthy to work with but accept that such wide collection of modules they cant all be spot on. However i find it surprising that its not possible to increase the range on the smart snap in sketch mode. The "diameter" in which catia starts finding points, lines etc is for me only approximately 3mm and thats no matter how simple the sketch may be and what level i zoom in. This means for me a lot of unnecessary stress on arms and hands especially in periods of much work. All other cad systems i worked with have had something like 10mm smart snap and even if never changed settings in these programs i bet it was possible.
I have searched the internet for a solution but so far no luck.
I would be really happy if someone could help me.
Greetings
Henrik
