Timeline Snap options

Right now the timeline Snap feature has no options - it works for all assets, and clips snap not to each other, but to TRANSITIONS, leaving gaps and unsynced layers, it's very annoying. Users have to manually check every clip for whether it snapped to other clip's border, or to it's transition border.

It would be great to have an option to disable Snap for transitions or for keyframes or for other types of assets, like we have in "Snap to" feature in Effect Controls panel.

Yep. The company I work for is switching over to Avid because of silly inconveniences like this.

Should be able to disable snapping to markers too. I can hide clip markers from the timeline but everything still snaps to them.

Yep, I need to zoom all the way in to make sure a clip has aligned with another clip, not one frame to the side aligned with a 2-frame audio crossfade.

Yes, that is much needed option.

Agreed. Snap sometimes is annoying.
