Editing linestrings

    Hej!

     

    I have a suggestion for the editing linestring-command. It would be nice to be able to continue adding horizontal segments between existing segments when you click the "Insert before current segment"-button. Like it is with the "Add after last segment"-button. For example, if I want to add say 20 segments between two existing segments I now have to click the add-button - draw the segment - click add - draw - and so on. Or cut the line, redraw it and then reconnect it. It would be easier to just click "insert before current segment" - draw all the segments I want - unclick the button and be done. This would be time-saving.

    Agreed. This is a pain when modifying things like boundaries.

    If you use the insert line segment macro this does what you are asking in a simple and easy way. It will draw segments between any segment with a single click. I agree that the edit linestring could be easier

    Thank you, Alan! That pretty much does it!

    But it would still be nice to have it integrated in the edit linestring-command

    Here is a video of the Insert Segment Macro and the Quick Line Macro which I use all the time for editing Linestrings

     

    Seems like the Upload Video function is not working - I will post it somewhere you can find the video and place a link
