NEW SNAP! Mid between two points

When trying to find the middle point between two points in the past, you might have cheated by drawing a line and using its midpoint or if you knew the distance to the middle point you could have used temporary tracking, but not anymore. With the release of AutoCAD 2005 a new snap has been developed to aid in CAD drafting, Mid Between Two Points.

M2p_2 The command line versions of this snap are MTP or M2P (both will work). The snap asks you for two points that will be used to calculate the middle point. This new snap is not available in the OSNAP Settings (F3) or the Object Snap Toolbar. The only way to use this snap is either on the command line or it is located in OSNAP shortcut menu (SHIFT+Right-click mouse button).
