Hi Andreas,
 
as a workaround for your problem I would suppose you draw a new line feature 
using the tracing function and then merge it with the one you want to extend.
That should work without any problem.

Betreff: Re: [Qgis-user] Extending an existing line with the vertex tool - 
combination with tracing possible?
 
Hi,
 
To my knowledge, when using the vertex tool, you click on the last node and 
then, you can extend it once.  I think you need to reclick the last node again 
if you want to add a new point.  I don’t do much vectorizing lately and in the 
past, used AutoCAD to do it. There must be some other way of doing it. Maybe 
there is a shortcut or something like the shift key we need to use.  I would 
check the user manual to see if there is an option under the vertex tool.  I 
see that lots of new tools have been added lately making QGIS a good contender 
for tracing.  I guess you could just create a new line and then merge both 
together.
 
Just my grain of salt…

Hi,
When I am extending an existing line with the vertex tool (by enabling the 
vertex tool and clicking on the small "plus" symbol), can I then still activate 
the "tracing" functionality to follow along other features?
If yes, I haven't found out how - any hints would be appreciated a lot!
Thanks,
Andreas
