Smart Guides: a point drawn with the Pen or a shape tool, and an anchor dragged with Direct Selection, snaps to where paths and ruler guides cross, labelled "intersect" (#1658, part of #1602; a moved selection's own anchors don't).
   A move that Shift keeps level, upright or diagonal stays on that line when it snaps, with the Selection, Group Selection or Direct Selection tool. It slides along the line until the selection lands on the grid or on whole pixels, lines up with the other objects or is spaced evenly with them, or until the line passes an anchor or crosses a ruler guide near the point the selection was grabbed by. A level or upright move snaps along its own axis only.
   Snap to Last Location: with Smart Guides on and Preferences › Smart Guides › Snap to Last Location on (off by default, VectorCraft's own choice), a selection moved by dragging with the Selection, Group Selection or Direct Selection tool, Shift too, goes back to where the move began while it is within Snapping Tolerance of it, labeled "last location"; an Alt copy is not pulled back onto its original, and with View › Snap to Grid or Snap to Pixel on the move snaps to the grid or to whole pixels instead (`prefs.set` key `snapToLastLocation`). The public [Smart Guides options](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/smart-guides-options.html) page lists the option as snapping objects back to their previous position; the distance, the label, the copy rule and the grid and pixel rule are VectorCraft's own. Tests: `select::tests::snap_to_last_location_puts_a_move_back_where_it_began`, `select::tests::snap_to_pixel_wins_over_snap_to_last_location`, `direct::tests::snap_to_last_location_puts_a_path_moved_by_its_anchor_back`, `direct::tests::snap_to_pixel_wins_over_snap_to_last_location_for_a_path_moved_by_its_anchor`, `tests_prefs::snap_to_last_location_puts_a_dragged_square_back`.
+  Pixel Preview: with View › Pixel Preview on, the tools use no Smart Guides. Nothing snaps to Smart Guides or shows their guides, and Snap to Point acts as it does with Smart Guides off. View › Smart Guides keeps its setting and applies again when Pixel Preview is turned off. [Work with Smart Guides](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/work-with-smart-guides.html) says Smart Guides cannot be used while Pixel Preview is on. Tests: `tests::smartguides::pixel_preview_turns_smart_guides_off`, `canvas::tests::pixel_preview_stops_smart_guides_snapping_a_move`.
   Distance Guides: with Smart Guides on (View › Smart Guides and Preferences › Smart Guides › Invoke Distance Guides, on by default), something selected and the Selection tool, holding Alt/Option over another object shows the distances between the selection's bounds and that object's: on an axis on which they lie apart, one line across the gap between their facing edges; on one on which they overlap, the offsets of their left and right (top and bottom) edges, each line running across the middle of where they overlap, with a dashed line out to the other object's edge when it passes beside it. Over an empty part of an artboard it shows the selection's distances from the artboard's left, right, top and bottom edges. Each line has ticks at its ends and its length in a pill of the smart guide colour, in the General unit; letting Alt go, pressing (a pan or zoom press too), moving off them, leaving the canvas or a floating panel, menu or dialog over the pointer takes them away, and with the pointer still they follow what lies under it as the view scrolls, zooms or turns, as the document, the tab or the selection changes, and when the Selection tool is switched to. Behaviour from the public [Use Distance Guides for accurate placement](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/use-distance-guides-for-accurate-placement.html) and [Smart Guides options](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/smart-guides-options.html) pages, which describe hovering only: nothing shows while moving or nudging. Tests: `select::tests::alt_over_*`, `select::tests::distance_guides_need_alt_a_selection_and_smart_guides`, `tests_prefs::invoke_distance_guides_measures_the_selection_to_the_object_under_alt`, `canvas::tests::alt_over_another_object_draws_the_distance_guide_label`, `canvas::tests::distance_guides_go_when_the_hover_ends`, `canvas::tests::distance_guides_follow_what_lies_under_a_still_pointer`.
   A move pressed on a path's stroke, or within 6 px of its outline away from its anchors and center, is held by the nearest point of that path, with the Selection, Group Selection or Direct Selection tool, and a straight segment Direct Selection drags is held by its own nearest point. That point is what snaps, so the path lands exactly on a ruler guide (with "align") instead of the pressed spot landing there and the path a few pixels beside it, an offset that showed only zoomed far in (#3701). A press in the middle of a fill still snaps the pressed spot: the public [Align objects with guides](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/align-graphic-objects-with-guides.html) page has Snap to Point align the point under the pointer, which is placed exactly where the object should meet the guide.
   A bounding-box handle dragged with the Selection or Free Transform tool snaps what it moves as a dragged point snaps (#2054). With View › Snap to Grid on, it snaps to the nearest gridline, and with Snap to Pixel on, it snaps to whole pixels. With Smart Guides off and Snap to Point on, it snaps to the other objects' anchors and the ruler guides within the Snap to Point distance. With Smart Guides and Snap to Point both on, it lines up with the ruler guides as well as the other objects. Shift still keeps the proportions, and Alt still scales about the center.
