Hmmm... Snap to guides is already enabled by default for new docs in 1.5.3.

oh yes – sorry!
i checked it after searching for a setting to fix 'snap to items' as a default. and it doesn't show as enabled without an open document.
maybe it would be better to show it (i.e. 'sticky tools' shows the checkmark if it's enabled and no document is open…), but the bug could also be closed.

i'm not sure that snap to items should be enabled by default.

not before it works in a way that feels very comfortable.

currently, i would say that in the general case i'm often not that happy with the snapping options...
in the current state, i prefer to enable it when it

somehow, i have the feeling that at some time in the past, the snapping to guides was enabled by default...

it's not in the current versions of scribus.

can we really have it enabled by default?
(i mean: i create a new document, "snap to guides" should be enabled.)

(on top of it, when all documents are closed one should be able to set the value for the snapping options in the page menu and that should be considered a preferences for all future documents)

I'm working on a prefs tab

- disable the page > snapping items when no doc is open (they do nothing anyway)
- only show the tab in the prefs (not in the doc setup)
