I'm going through the QGIS training Manual and I got stuck trying to set up the snapping unit to map units at the Forestry Application 14.3 Digitizing Forest Stands. The manual indicates to set the snapping units in Map units but the only available options are meters and pixels.

I am using QGIS 3.22.1.

  • epsg.io/3067 - UoM is m.

  • In my experience it is easier to use a radius of 10-12 pixels. This works with layers in projected coordinate systems (UTM for example) or latitude longitude ones (like EPSG 4326) Jan 12, 2022 at 14:12

This setting is dependent on the map unit of the project CRS, not of the layer CRS.

Here the project is in 3857, map unit is meter

and now the project CRS is in 4326, map unit is degree
