Is it just me or does any one else miss being able to measure and constrain to Quadrants? I can't believe Autodesk left such a simple and powerful tool out of such a great program. Let's rally the troops to get this one back!

I agree, Q snap would be very helpful for me as well. In fantasy land maybe they could make some sort of Radial Type snap, Where you could select what angles you want to snap to along the circle. it would help me a lot if i could snap at 45's and 90's.

Why, oh why, wasn't this done right from the start. Even better yet, why not angular snap settings, in settable increments. It strikes me that somebody really missed a big opportunity here.

I agree -- I would like to be able to measure and constrain to quadrants. Maybe Inventor could just assign the 4 quadrants to the circle based on the coordinate system for the part, or the sketch. That would be good enough for me.
