Which feature helps with precise alignment by snapping to nearby edges while moving objects?

• A. Rulers help measure alignment but do not snap.
• B. Smart Guides provide snapping to nearby edges for precise alignment.
• C. Paths automatically align using the Pen Tool.
• D. Grid lines are used for alignment with no snapping.

Answer: (B)

When you’re adjusting the position of something in Photoshop, you want help lining it up quickly and accurately. Smart Guides provide that by giving real-time snapping to nearby edges, centers, and other key points as you drag. As you move a layer or shape close to another object's edge or its midpoint, Smart Guides appear and the item snaps into alignment, making precise placement effortless without manual measurement.

Rulers and grid lines are useful references, but they don’t offer the same dynamic snapping during movement unless additional snapping options are enabled, and paths aren’t about snapping dragged objects to edges. So the feature that specifically enables snapping to nearby edges while moving objects is Smart Guides.
