Disable snapping to objects

Question

As I'm dragging around an object on a Confluence Whiteboard (beta) the dragged object will snap to (auto-align with) other objects. I appreciate this feature in many scenarios, but sometimes it gets in the way of placing objects where you actually want them.

Is there a way (shortcut or setting) to ignore this snapping behaviour?

Running into this same issue, hard to move objects around the board and they just keep snapping. Usually this kind of behaviour can be mitigated by pressing shift or alt or similar keyboard item. Please consider adding this to Confluence!

Hi @Jakob Tolstrup Bech Confluence whiteboards PM here! There isn't a way to turn this feature off/disable it, but something I can suggest is zooming in so that the snapping because more granular - therefore it shouldn't interfere too much with where you're placing objects. Hope this helps!
