    Well, actually it has everything to do with the cursor position.

    Download the files for this tutorial and open this file, and position your view something like in the photo I’ve posted here.  Turn on face snapping mode and try moving the chair while carefully watching where the cursor is.

    There is absolutely no chance that chair will snap to any of the walls unless the cursor is positioned on that wall.

    Same thing with volume, vertex and edge mode. You always have to point with your cursor to vertex or edge to which you want your object to snap. Which, when you think about it, makes perfect sense because there is really no other way for developers to figure out where exactly you want object to snap to, unless you point there with your cursor.

    Anyway, thank you for taking your time to answer! 🙂
