SRC does not work in 2001 LT

Although I carefully read and tested all options included in your communication about Flyover Snap Behavior SRC will not work properly. Indeed, most of the time it does not work at all!
The most simple example is that of a line which I want to continue from its end point.
Whether or not some settings are selected in the Dialog Box, SRC will not pop the osnap menu, even with Flyover Snaps turned off.
Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hi Hector
It seems to me the latest version was rushed out to show off the flyover snap facility. There seem to be two sets of code present in the current release.
1) Icads original snaps
2) The flyover addition
These are causing conflicts at the moment and my guess is much of the original code will be removed in a later release leaving flyover as default.
I've found the best thing is to have flyover enabled with the snap toolbar visible. Supposing you have set a number of snaps active if you look at the toolbar you will see the buttons are depressed on the active snaps. It is best to control your snaps from here. If you have too many snaps active sometimes the engine seems to be unable to home in on the snap you want. In this case turn off some of the snaps you dont require ON THE TOOLBAR and leave the one you require active. ALWAYS LEAVE AT LEAST ONE SNAP ACTIVE on the toolbar. If you don't it reverts to the old Icad snap icon at the cursor and SNAP on the bottom status bar is greyed out. Snap doesn't work when these old icons appear. I guess these old icons are a legacy which will eventually be removed and don't work in latest version. Forget choosing snaps by POP0 as this doesn't appear to communicate with flyover snaps.

I have found that if you type the snap, Intellicad works beautifully as it does if you re-configure your digitizing table. It doesn't if you use the screen osnap element. It is not a problem of resolution.

What i've found is that -at least in the free version- the snaps (in the pop up menu and in the toolbar) comes with an apostrophe, that is to say, trying to work in transparent mode. That make them not to work at all.
What is necesary to do is to edit the menu and the toolbar items and delete the apostrophes. They will work properly, like typing the snaps, as Eduardo does.
