#3832 new enhancement

add x y input to move

Reported by: elcuco Owned by: nobody
Priority: minor: annoyance Milestone: Version 1.7.0
Component: GUI Version:
Keywords: Cc:
Must Fix for Release: No Platform: All
Platform Version: Awaiting user input: no

Description

Please add the ability to input X and Y values to the Move tool in the Digitizing toolbar. It could work like this:

  • mouse left button: free move of the feature
  • mouse right button: opens a dialogue box to input the X and Y values.

This way there's more control over the Move tool and its actions. Best regards, Pedro

Yes, it's a plugin. But what I've meant was move an entirely feature (point, line or polygon) and not a single vertex ;)

I have found the numeric vertex editor to be buggy and do strange things at time. I think this would be a good feature to have in the main app.

Being able to edit the vertex points also would be good.

true, mine was just a suggestion for a temporary workaround for points/nodes
