That isn't as controlled as 2D and 2.5 D Rotational Snap Toggle  2D Snap The cursor snaps only to the active construction grid, including any geometry on the plane of that grid. The Z axis, or vertical dimension, is ignored.  2.5D Snap The cursor snaps only to the vertices or edges of the projection of an object onto the active grid. Suppose you create a grid object and make it active. You then position the grid object so you can see through the grid to a cube further off in 3D space.
