Jog TCP bug in RobotStudio v2025?

jerittwilliams

I appreciate that the Jog TCP has been broken out from the move/rotate. However, it seems like it is now impossible to snap the TCP onto geometry. I tried all possible selections and snap options. Am I missing something, or is this a bug in the latest version of RobotStudio? I also reported this via in-software feedback. For context, I do not use this feature much myself, but I teach an introductory course in robotics and one of the first ways I teach students to program a robot is by jogging the robot to a point on a part (using snap tools) to teach instructions (before moving on to more complex graphical methods like creating targets, etc)

Hello there,

The snap TCP functionality was buggy and has been disabled pending future improvement work.
This is also mentioned in the release notes.

Thank you for the reply and I appreciate the hard work that has gone in to constantly improving RobotStudio. However, I did not find this mentioned in the release notes for 2025.1.1.

It is still there , in 2025.2 version too. And it is annoying

The release notes for RS 2025.1 mention the following:

Incorrect snapping for linear and planar jogging

When using linear or planar jogging with snapping enabled in the graphics window the TCP snapped to edges or corners according to the selected snap mode. This modified the TCP position along other axes than only the selected one, which was not an expected behavior. The TCP snapping has been disabled for linear and planar jogging.

I will check what the plan is for this functionality and get back to you.
