Via point snap to road
Quote from Atticuscat on 29.12.2025, 11:35May I request ‘snap to road’ when placing via points. I appreciate it will be tricky to use around complex junctions but for the vast majority of via point placement it will eliminate the need to zoom right in to make sure the point goes to the road and not the adjacent field. Thank you.

Good suggestion. Will add to feature request list.

Quote from andrej77sk on 28.04.2026, 11:59May I add my bit to this one - while with "via points", this would be a clear improvement in majority of cases, snapping "stop points" to the road might be in certain cases a disadvantage, just to name a few:
- in case I specifically want to place the stop on a particular side of the road
- if the stop is not directly on the road (accomodation)
- if I want to pass through certain point where no road is mapped (for hard off-roaders like myself)

For anything other than one-way roads, how would Scenic decide which side of the road to snap to?

Quote from Jimmy999 on 29.04.2026, 04:54Most ideal would be snap only on long press or something, because you would not want even via to be locked and not be user movable. Or maybe only snap on first creation or similar. This would also solve for Stop points and have a consistent way of using them. Cheers.
