We introduce a new drawing technique called Hyper-Snapping.
In many drawing editors, various operations
are provided for object alignment, and snapping is one of
the most frequently used techniques, with which users can
snap the mouse cursor or dragged objects to existing objects
or square grids. HyperSnapping is an extension to
snapping operations, where users can control the behavior
of snapping grids and the constraints between objects only
by dragging objects, without explicitly changing drawing
modes. With HyperSnapping, simple constraints and drawing
macros can easily be constructed and used for further
editing without explicit end-user programming.
