Hi Sebastian, Well, you have definitely noticed that I experimented with user input as I tried to not impose a strict order of selections. The orthogonalizer tool hint is definitely worth a good consideration as I am not keen to propagate unusual user interaction: the closer to the JOSM standard the easier for everyone I reckon.
As you mention GIMP: what tool would do you recommend for proper icon designing? I used Inkscape to design mine - which is btw a very good vectorial graphics tool - but I found it quite difficult to render good quality 24x24 icons from the original ones. Probably there are good methods in there but I don't know them. :) Attila On 4 June 2010 18:39, Sebastian Klein <[email protected]> wrote: > Attila Szász wrote: > > D'oh, haven't seen that tip on the Plugins page. > > I've uploaded the .jar to an http address: > > http://tilusnet.com/osm/josm/dev/alignways/alignways.jar. > > It already appears on the Plugin > > <http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Plugins>page as well. > > I'm sure you'll let me know if you have suggestions about the plugin. > Enjoy. > > Hi Attila, > > it looks very stylish and works well! > > Still the workflow with all shortcuts and modifiers is a little strange, > but it's not your fault I guess.
