+1 For dropping single point selection button.
I think that having too many options\buttons can sometimes be overwhelming
for new users, and in this case users won't notice much difference in usage
anyway (do we need to decide what to do with the icon).

On Thu,
+1 for the merge. I'm with those arguing that the single select tool does
not add anything useful.
Best wishes

Luca,
It will do that. Single click with rectangle tool will already do this.

+1 for leaving both visible options, but defaulting to rectangle.
If the underlying code is different, then even at the expense of the
extra code required to compute that you have a null-sized rectangle (ie
a point click), you might want to use the same code.
But, especially for a newbie, it
Hi, in my user experience, I feel like Nathan: one tool is more intuitive.
I'm bothered each time I have to explicitly switch to rectangular selection
tool..

Users might be used to the select single feature tool and miss it.
While it's possible for somebody to get used to new interaction designs
it's an effort and it's not where you want to spend your time worrying.

Of course, we must default the selection tool to the rectangle one, in
addition we must change the tooltip (and maybe the icon too?) to something

+1 for simplifying the ui !
The rationale about old users not liking changes doesn't hold against the
rationale new users needing an easy software, since we have way more future
users than current users ;)

Hi,
+1 for dropping the select-by-point part of the tool and making
select-by-rect the default.
However, I really think the icon, as Giuseppe noted, needs updated to
indicate the change (even if the select-by-rect hasn't actually changed).
Maybe just adding a pronounced or colored point to the
Hey,
I would like to propose that we remove the single select map tool.
Main reason to remove is its function is redundant as the rectangle select
does a single point select if you don't drag i.e single click. I live in
rectangle select mode 99% of the time and never have any issues.
As the

So maybe we could change the default selection tool to rectangle? One of
the first thing I personally always do when using a fresh qgis (with
default settings) is to change selection tool to rectangle for the reason

My main goal at the moment is to reduce some of the clutter and duplicate,
or shared behavior, tools that we have. So setting it as a default
wouldn't really solve that issue. I would only remove it from the UI, it
will still be in the code for the API.

Hi,
Given that the rectangle tool also contains the select single features
with a click tool I agree that we could get rid of the select single
features with a click tool.
So +1 from me.
+1 also to calling it Select Features Tool in the tooltip.
