      Can someone tell me how to turn off inferencing? I'm just trying to digitize geometry over a scanned image and it's hendering--not helping!

        Not sure if it's possible but why not adjust your setting so that you get more control over snapping and line angles.

          That helps, thanks. I guess in general the more you zoom in the more you can control points you wish placed away from inference attractors. Sticky!

            Yes, the only thing you can turn of is length snapping (I never have it on actually). Other inferences cannot be turned off and unless you zoom in to particular spots, some of them can be annoying while tracing images with the free hand (or in fact any other) tool.

              Well I'm left a little confused about just what the length and angle snapping are and what can and can't be turned off. Gai says the length snapping can be turned off. That would be by the radio button at "Enable Length Snapping"? If so, there's also a radio button at "Enable Angle Snapping"--can it be toggled off? The way I first read Solo's advice was to leave them enabled but to make the distances in the "Precision" and "Enable" boxes very small--like 1/64"--the reasoning being that the inference meddler in the background would allow more choices of points for a given space.

                the only aspects of inferencing you can change/turn off are length and angle snapping.

                Length snapping snaps geometry to incremental units when you create it.

                Angle snapping snaps geometry to angular increments when you rotate it.

                Generally i find it easiest to turn length/angle snapping of and just type stuff in to the VCB when i need precision.
