[Feature Request] Please consider making positioning assistants effective while placing a new element in a view

[rojoweko]

Hi,

please consider enhancing the positioning assistants (snap to grid, etc.) to be also effective when a new element from the palette or the model tree is originally being placed in a view. This could somewhat reduce the laying out effort.

Currently new elements are simply placed where the mouse cursor drops them, ignoring any activated layout assistants. For assisted positioning a just added element has to be grabbed and positioned again, which is slowing down the process of creating a diagram a little bit, because sometimes one might forget about aligning the added elements correctly, which might lead to accidential misalignment of other elements as well, which needs to be corrected later on. This applies especially to elements, which are added from the palette, because after dropping a new element the user is being asked to enter an element name first before any further action is possible.

Thanks in advance! ;-)

This behaviour won't be changed.
