Snap beahviour in NX8

Snap beahviour in NX8

(OP)
I would like to know if there's a way to adjust or change SNAP beahaviour in NX8. I would like it to work as it used to be in NX4.

For example, in NX4 I could pick the END (or MIDDLE point) of a line just moving the cursor near the END of the line. I didn't have to be exactly over the END, just somewhere along the line, near the end.

In NX8 I have to place the cursor exactly over the END of the line if I want the SNAP to activate. This slows down my workflow alot. Is there any way to change this behaviour ?

Don't forget also to toggle off the point on curve option
