[Qgis-user] Snapping points and lines in 3D

Hi, It's not by chance, we have been working a lot to try to make the
digitizing maptools catch with the 3D API for geometries, because before
2.18, it was just destroying Z and M values for all operations.
I think some use cases are still missing probably, and some are not easy to
solve by one default behavior, because choosing if you want to snap Z value
or not should be a user choice.
We have been discussing a lot about going towards some interactive snapping
widget to be able to choose which feature to grab, which to snap to, use Z
or not, use a Z snapping tolerance or not. It's a big topic!
Best regards
Régis
