#3314 new bug

Node tool does not allow multiple-selection when geometry is invalid

Reported by: Alister Owned by: nobody
Priority: minor: annoyance Milestone: Version 1.7.0
Component: Digitising Version: Trunk
Keywords: Node tool, invalid geometry, multiple-selection Cc:
Must Fix for Release: No Platform: Windows
Platform Version: XP Awaiting user input: no

Description

To reproduce:

  • Select a polygon layer and click the edit button
  • Try to select multiple nodes using Ctrl-click. It should work.
  • Using the node tool, move some nodes so that the polygon border crosses itself. A green x should be displayed at the intersection.
  • Try to select multiple nodes using Ctrl-click. It won't work.

I can't see any reason why it is desirable for multiple-selection to be disabled when the geometry is invalid. The user may want to fix it by selecting multiple-nodes and deleting (or moving) them.

The user may want to fix it

I mean fix the invalid geometry of course, not fix the bug ;)
