Object/s were draggged on to the architect
The object/s can be dragged and then dropped on the architect itself (!) If the grid is on, you will find that this will NOT make the architect snap to the grid! .
Note that you can now make it choose one of the four corners of the square of the shape of the architect. That means if you drop it somewhere near the top right corner within the architect; the first helper object will snap to the top right-corner of the architect's location. To see this effect well; you would need to ensure in the application settings that the don't move architect with dragged object/s is checked on. From version 6.8.8.5 onwards; the default setting is NOT to move the architect during dragging operations.
If that setting is off; then you may get slightly confused on what is happening; as after the operation is over; the architect will re-locate itself to the first helper.
This functionality is quite useful as you can make the architect as a spacer to separate out the gaps between objects. So if you had set the size of the architect at 0.115 (which is the usual internal wall thickness in Navi Mumbai, India) then you will be able to quickly lay down a set of rooms, with the gaps between the rooms at 0.115 – All you have to do is to cleverly snap the architect to the correct corners; and then drag the object you want re-adjusted onto the appropriate corner of the architect so that you get the gap you want
