Hi Jukka,

Should be quite simple to add. Do you want to test your programmer skill on this feature ?
Otherwise, create a feature request, I'll try to find some time.
I have needed start and end points some times ago. And as I did not know it was possible
with Sextante I found the following workaround :
- extract points : select points with sequence_id = 0 -> start points
- revert all the lines
- repeat the operation -> end points

Hi,

I thought that there would be a tool for selecting endpoints and startpoints of geometries like we can select centroids but I could only find such tool from the Sextante toolbox under the Topology category. I am happy with the Sextante tool now once I found it but the task feels rather simple and it might be useful to have it also as a native tool.

We do have “Extract points” tool which can be used for finding the start points by selecting points with sequence_id from the result set. However, for end points the sequence_id varies. How about making a comprehensive Extract points tool with some enhancements? New check boxes should be added

-extract all points

-extract start points

-extract end points

“All” should be mutually exclusive with the “start” and/or “end” selections and there might be new Boolean type columns “is_start” and “is_end” which would be populated also for the “All” selection. The attributes of the three-point resultset of “All points” run for a three-vertex line would look like:

FID item_id             sequence_id   is_start is_end

10 1                           1                           0

20 2                           0                           0

30 3                           0                           1
