New draggers snapping are messy and inaccurate

The new draggers are useless in their current state, and now it seems like there is no way to disable them.

The Shift + X/C to disable snapping simply does not work on my end. I am not sure what they are meant to disable anyways ? The little white snap dots that seemingly appear on any random surfaces ? The actual increments in the toolbar ? Holding Shift to disable snapping ALSO disables the increment, despite the increment being toggled on. This means that right now there is simply no way of precisely dragging and resizing a part to, say, size 3.0 if by choatic chance there is a white snapping target dot that decided to summon itself on the nearest unrelated geometry just nearby, snapping my size to 3.0223, and since holding shift disables both snapping AND increment, I have to eyeball it.

Expected behavior

I expect the Shift + X/C to actually work and be clearer in what they are supposed to disable / enable in the first place. Additionally, holding shift should not disable increment at all, just snapping.

I agree. When dragging along meshes, they no longer snap to the bounds and loosely slide around the surface. It’s super messy. What would have taken me a second to align is taking me like 3 minutes.

Here is a clip showing increments being ignored in favor of that snapping target, and having no way of disabling the snapping target without the increment also being disabled:

bumping this since this is such an annoying problem (hopefully bumping still works lol)
I need a fix yo

pumping again since this is getting in the way of my building, even a way to make it go back to the old snapping would be a blessing, aligning with your snap now is like trying to pick a needle out of a haystack, genuine it just starts going into the 0.00001s :sob:

the true curse

i assume there might be like fastflags that still disable ts but omg roblox be doing anything to kill the platform nowdays

The white snapping points really should not be the default, they should be something you hold a hotkey to get. There’s just no way to get rid of them (unless I missed it)! It’s making everything take so much longer. Setting an increment is almost useless now unless what you’re dragging is surrounded by absolutely nothing.

To @IWacky_Galaxy @DragonsTHUNDER3 @littlebird78 And all the others that might stumble upon this post. I was able to find out how to disable snapping and it was hidden in this menu just besides the move and rotate increment:

Yes, nothing really ever stated that this could be disabled here…

brooooo, i made an entire plugin to fix this lol

THANK YOU!! i also found that (and i am sure these are likely in other spots i just can’t find them), if you add tools and search “snap,” there are these toggles as well.
