Hi Bernhard,
I agree that some editing ideas are not strictly CAD but we have to
think the end user and where the tools are expected to be found more
easily. Also the number of new tools are important. For 2-5 new tools,
extending cadTools would be more appropriate than a new plugin.

Angelos,
would you see this functionality rather in cadTools or in a new plugin?

Dear list,
during a course I realized that my institution needs some more editing
tools for advanced editing tasks e.g.
- prolong a line
- cut polygon with feature (line or polygon) from another layer
- save all layers being in editing mode in one go
- some more
A little background: when digitizing data we are not starting from
scratch but are digitzing on existing data in many different layers
(parcels, restricted areas ...). A new polygon normally needs to fit
into these existing boundaries. Trying to digitize along existing
boundaries of several layers and snapping to them is cumbersome and
you are very likely missing snapping nodes (even when using trace
digitize plugin).
Is any of you aware of similar functions in a plugin (I know
cadTools)? Is anyone interested in joining me to create such tools as
a Python plugin? Which functions would you like to have?
regards
Bernhard

Hi Bernhard,
Excellent timing, I was thinking about creating a new functionality that
I need for a parcel digitization project.
One tool I have in mind is parallel moving of a side of a polygon in
order to achieve a specific area for the polygon (and at the same time
maintain topological integrity with near polygons.
Cheers,
Angelos
