Rhino 8 Windows - Snap & Track not working

Hi everyone,

Rhino novice here. I’m just moving from Rhino 7 to 8 on Windows.

I’ve gone about my usual process of turning Osnap and SmartTrack on, but neither are active / working after I switch them on. Can anyone think what I’m missing?


So, for example if you start drawing a polyline, you can’t snap to anything at all?

Please run SystemInfo in Rhino and post the results here.

Hi Helvetosaur, thanks for your reply. It’s exactly like that.
