When snap to object is on, the SmartCursor finds specific parts of an object, such as corners, endpoints, midpoints, or centers of 2D objects and arc edges, as well as meshes, extrudes, sweeps, spheres, 3D polygons, 3D planar faces, and walls, floors, roofs, roof faces, loci, and columns. Cues display near the cursor to identify the location.
