Good morning everyone, with the 2025 update the ability to use snaps to the center of the bounding box for the rotate tool has been added, but at the same time the snaps to the corners of the bounding box have been removed, which were extremely convenient. Now to align an object to a tilted surface you need more steps. I also wonder why the center snaps to the bounding box have not been added for the move tool. Which would be very convenient for positioning for example lamps, vases, or for centering for example chairs with tables. I sincerely hope that these things can be implemented as soon as possible, especially the snaps for the rotate tool.

Oh wow, did’t know that. Is this a new feature or it always been there?
always been there ! at least since bounding box anchor points were introduced, I believe it was 2021 version

Wow, i can’t believe it, I’ve been using Sketchup for years and I never noticed it, and I’ve never even heard anyone talk about it in courses, tutorials or demonstrations. Thanks Paul for your quick reply

Watch this - the ability to change the snaps is explained from about 6:45 onwards.
