The ability to snap on the previewed geometry (without baking) has been mentioned before and, as I remember, there were some plugins that made it possible.
Any plans to implement this in GH2?

Try with this component
Sounds like it’s what I need, but the download link is dead. Can anyone upload the component here?
Would be good to have this as a native option.

the dowload link is working here, maybe you need to login first.
ah great, thanks!
It would be good to have this out of the box. This plugin is 5 years old…

Just bumping this as a +1 wish list item for native functionality
I remember a russian guy from unstudio working on something like this.
Hi @Bogdan_Chipara ,
Do you happen to have a link or name to search?

Would this just be about the curves and points, or do you also need the surfaces? Asking for a friend.

@DavidRutten , While the surfaces could be beneficial and I think others may say absolutely “so that I can snap a line to a surface normal”.
I would be more than happy with just vertices and ideally lines.
Honestly, given the reference system of osnaps (the ability to choose two vertices and have it then snap to a psuedo midpoint) I’d be happy enough with just vertex snapping alone.
But yes, the larger wish list would include surface/perpendicular snapping as well. Perhaps the ability to toggle specific osnap settings for the preview meshes. But again, I’d be more than happy with vertices
