Is there a way to get the slice tool to snap to the edge of images, shapes etc. as you make the slice?

It seems to snap the edge of the artboard for me, but not the objects and images on it.

It would be so much better if it snapped when making the initial slice instead of having to adjust the edge of each slice.

Is there a way to do this?
