For me, the current situation (node tool) is a major improvement over the old, many-buttons one. Everything can be improved, but I would see having many buttons as a regression. agree 100% ___ Qgis-developer mailing list

Can't you do that with the node tool? Well, as far as I tried, you cannot remove a single node. And to add one, double-click seems to add a node (there is a cross drawn), but you cannot move it, and it is added in the wrong segment. ___

Denis, You can remove one or more nodes by selecting them - they become blue - and then you hit the delete key. A double click adds a node. But there is no way to extend and already digitized line beyond the end. This functionality needs to be added. Andreas On Mon, 23 Jan 2012 15:27:12
