4. Temporary Snaps menu (available most tools) Access by holding 7Shift + 8right clicking with the cursor in the drawing screen.  The Temporary Snaps act much like the Permanent Entity Snaps except that they last for only one mouse click.  You can temporarily disable/enable the currently set Entity Snaps and or Grid Snaps.  You may also select one or more Entity Snaps you desire to use temporarily.  This is useful for entity snapping that you do not commonly use but want to quickly switch too.  Options available:
