Question

Restore snap-to-grid behaviour for path handles

Hi,

one of the new features in AI CC 2014 is path handles ignoring any grid. However, when one wants to construct C2-contious joins between seperate objects, precise control over the handle position is needed. I do a lot of icon and sprite art, and there it is imperative that curves from differnent objects flow exactly the same to create a smoth transition between individual pieces.

How can one restore the ability of handles to snap to the grid like in previous versions of AI?

Reagrds,

Chris

If I didn't want the path handles to snap to the grid, I would turn snap to grid off. Why add one feature and then remove the ability to turn it off?

I noted that thing too at Adobe blog post at The 2014 release of Illustrator CC is here! « Adobe Illustrator blog

I had no answer. I wrote a bug report about it, still no answer (as always).

I'm also extremely disappointed this has been removed without any explanation. I require this to have consistent curves within an icon or illustration.
