Two new snap tools (request for new features)
Greetings to the whole community!
The intent is to increase the productivity (speed of execution) of FreeCad.
What do you think of these two new shots? Would it be useful to integrate them?

Looks great ! Remind me of the features in AutoCAD years ago

Great representation. Tools look useful.
Alone you go faster. Together we go farther

Re: Two new snap tools
Awesome! Note that in principle, if the workingplane snap button is enabled, apparent intersection works. But it is based on the working plane, not on the view. So a view-based apparent intersection would still be very good to have...

Grzie "Yorik" (!) Yes that's it, "apparent intersection" works on the active work plane if the snap workingPlane is also selected, while if it is not selected it works on the active view plane at that moment.

Hello Roy_043!
Thanks for your comment,
it is true that the intersection command also works as an apparent intersection (I already knew it and I have already used the command), but it does it precisely if the plane is defined, it would be, in my view, more practical and clearer (especially for new users) create a separate feature with its own well-defined icon (similar to the one in the image) and which also works in the view that is active at that moment, moreover, by separating the two snap commands you could avoid interference of the two types of intersection in particular when they are very close.
