Re: [Qgis-user] Advanced Digitizing Panel

[Randal Hale]

OK - figured it out. I think I was floating back to some long forgotten 
ArcGIS reflexes.


Advanced Digitizing panel isn't enabled UNTIL I start adding a feature. 
I was attempting to add the feature by using the Advanced Digitizing Panel.


Sorry for the noise on the list - but thanks for the help.

I've got a question.

I'm doing some work for a forestry client where I need to digitize
a road 650 feet long. SoAdvanced Digitizing Panel to the rescue.

Except..

I'm on 2.14.9 (windows) and 2.18.1 (windows and Linux).

  * On 2.14.9 the panels appears with all the correct icons and
things - but it has "Error" at the top.
  * On 2.18.1 (Windows and Linux) - I get "CAD Tools are not
enabled for the current map tool".

In both cases I've enabled editing, disabled editing, created a
scratch layer, set a layer in PostGIS, etc - and I can't get it to
enable. On Linux I moved my .qgis2 folder to .qgis2-old to create
a new one and nothing.

Usually by this point I would think bug - but I still half think
it's me.

Advice? Angst? Questions? Answers?

Randy

The data and project is in EPSG:2274. At one point I had the data in 2274
and the project in 4326 - same result (I think - not at my computer
currently).

Hi,
What's the projection of the data or of the project? I think it might not
be a geograhic one (can't tell which of the issues is related, though).

Hallo Werner
Danke für den Volltreffer in´s blaue.
Thanks for the perfect shot into the blue. I thought it would work like in 
other occasions, where if snapping is enabled but nothing to snap into is 
around that it just uses the pointer location.
:)

Hi

A guess into the blue - did you probably set some snapping options?
