Moritz,

thank you very much for your help. I understand so far whats going on. But I 
did not choose any menu items; I typed v.in.ogr in the console window, and then 
the reduced wizard showed up. So the flag --ui is what I need.

Is --ui available for every GRASS command? Or is there a way for the user to 
see/to learn if 2 wizards for the same command are existing?

In most cases, I'd love to see all options available because my input datasets 
often require filtering, selecting or setting tolerances.

Thank you once more.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

UWE FISCHER

This is an old discussion. See [1] for example.

The menu entry File->Import vector data->Common import formats actually does 
not launch v.in.ogr as such, but a GUI import wizard which launches v.in.ogr.

The general gist of those in favor of simple versions of the wizard is that the 
wizard should only show the basic functionality to ease use.

Those who want to use the full-power v.in.ogr can launch it using v.in.ogr --ui 
in the console.

In GRASS7.2 the main import wizard actually uses v.import which allows 
reprojection during the import. It also gives access to the more detailed 
parameters. However, v.import does not provde min_area. If this is considered 
necessary, then a ticket should be opened.
