Hi Tim, If what you mean by "move to" is that there should be no line between the previous point and the target point, all you need to do in Veusz is insert a coordinate pair containing at least one NaN. (Written, nicely enough, as nan or NaN.) So: x1 y1 x2 y2 nan nan x3 y3 x4 y4 will have lines connecting pts. 1 & 2 and 3 & 4, but not 2 & 3. It might take a tiny bit of scripting to insert the NaNs where you want them. Or writing an input plugin which automatically handles the blank lines as a pair of NaNs.
