Hard to snap nodes to other buildings.

[atiannicelli]

Description

I have noticed recently that it is more difficult to snap a node to an adjacent building that it used to be. I used to have to the use the option button to prevent the snapping, but now I can't seem to make it snap to a line unless there is already a node there. This means I need to create a node on the other building first and then click and drag a node from the other building to connect.

Thanks for reporting @atiannicelli , I’ve noticed this too , particularly in the walkthrough where the user is asked to snap a road to another road. I’ll investigate…
