Hi Bernhard

I do follow your suggestions and they make perfectly sense. This is a warning 
and I can probably safely disregard it in this case. I'm more curious to 
discover why two computers using the same OS and QGIS version seems to handle 
the CRS difference differently. My initial mail was not specifically directed 
at DigitizingTools but it is (from the user point of view) the source of the 
warning.

What I suspect is that some setting somewhere, inside or outside QGIS, might 
lead QGIS to behave differently - and I am curious to know :)


Regards Casper

Hi Casper,

I meant the CRS set in the layer's properties for the layer in question. 
As you said both are using the same project so the project's CRS should be the 
same in both cases.
In your first mail you state that the project's CRS is EPSG:25832 and the 
layer's is EPSG:3044. There is the missmatch. Change this to
EPSG:25832 and all is fine. Check if the layer's CRS has been set to
EPSG:25832 on the working computer.
If the very same layer loads into the very same project with different CRS on 
different machines then this is a question of QGIS in general and has nothing 
to do with DigitizingTools (which is just pointing out the difference).
