While you work, you
can turn running object snaps on and off temporarily by using an
override key. Temporary override keys can also be used for other
drawing aids; for example, Ortho mode and Polar mode.
For example, if you have set running object
snaps but you want to turn them off for one point, you can hold
down F3. When you release this override key, running object snaps are
restored.
There are also temporary override keys for individual
object snaps. Override keys are set up to be easy to find by touch
without looking away from your drawing.
The keys in the following
illustration are the default keys, but you can change key assignments
and add your own as needed.
Hold down Shift and one of the temporary override
keys in the illustration:
