So this is possible in a plugin? Kewl! Slightly off-topic, would it be nice to create a plugin for customizing key-bindings of QGIS functions? Some functions have shorcut keys while others don't. One of the toolset that can greatly benefit are the navigation (zoom and pan) and digitizing tools (toggle to edit, add vertex, move vertex, etc.).
With the ever increasing monitor screen size, I find it cumbersome to move and click the mouse just to call a certain function. Just thinking out loud here :) On Wed, Apr 22, 2009 at 4:56 PM, Carson Farmer <[email protected]> wrote: > I forgot to also send this to the list, in case others are interested.... > > -- > Carson J.
