Hi,
From experience I can say that nothing beats the keyboard shortcuts in speed when doing a real works and they are well located at least for right handed users. It is also impossible to digitise lines with a tablet PC. Therefore I support adding these right click tools. Another problem I have had with digitizing with a Window tablet PC was changing the visibility of a layer. Now it is programmed so that the click and release must happen in the same pixel inside the check box (at least it feels so) and it is almost impossible to do with a stylus in a moving car. But now everybody is on the same line with jre 1.7 because the check box does not react at all. For full tablet usage very much of the user interface should be adjusted. Many buttons should be bigger and submenus should stay open so that a user could do selections with click-click instead of click-slide to submenu item. Thats almost impossible too in a car. Note: I do not digitize while driving, I have a chauffeur. But Windows tablets are about non-existing at the moment. There would be much more demand for OpenJUMP for Android right now. Android version of QGIS seems to exist already.

    Hi all,

    I have extracted from my "Frankenstain" OpenJUMP Jufre a couple of
    plugins that could be useful on OJ.

    As usual, to explain the usage and the function, I did a plugin
    which I added to this mail that people can test (zoom.jar)

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These plugins are basically a zoom in, zoom out (already   on OJ)
    and a center zoom plugins. They are activated, under a "Zoom"
    submenu" on left-click View menu.

    I took the idea from Kosmo software. The plugins are basically the
    same of the Kosmo originals with few modifications in order to let
    them work with OJ.

    - The Plugins -
    "Zoom In" zooms of 0.5 factor to the point of the cursor.
    "Zoom out" is basically the same as the one embedded in OJ. It
    zooms to 2.0 factor. I put here in order to show the new icon and
    the position of this plugin according to the two other ones.
    "Zoom to Click" basically set the center of the view at the cursor
    position. It has no zoom effect (factor is 0.0)

    All tree plugins have new icons that should explain the usage.

    Why these tree zoom plugins on left-click view menu?
    When the user is drawing a geometry, it is very important that
    he/she can:
     a) define the accuracy of the drawing geometry. Zoom in and Zoom
    out allows to do it
    b) finish to draw that geometry outside the starting view, if the
    image to be drawn is outside. "Zoom to Click" allows to change the
    position of the view, according the cursor tool

    We have on OJ keyboard plugins for that.

    But zoom plugins available on the context menu are more easy to
    remember than keyboard ones. On the other hand they can be used on
    a tablet pc (no keyboard).
    And Context left-click menu on the view is always accessible by
    drawing tools (and other tools) while drawing a geometry

    I ask the people to do this test to see how these plugins could be
    useful

    - start to draw a simple line from west to east.
    - when you reached the eastern side of the view, you cannot go on
    drawing the line. Don't double click to stop drawing(!)
    - left-click and choose "Zoom to Click"
    - You will see that the center of the view is changed and so you
    can go on drawing.

    If you think that these plugins are useful. I image that the right
    position of them on the menus could be together with the other
    zoom plugins.

    The actual zoom plugins (In English):
    ....
    --------------
    Fence
    Zoom to Selected Items
    Zoom out
    -------------
    ........


    If we adopt these new zooms:
    ......
    -------------
    Fence
    Zoom to Selected Items
    -------------
    Zoom In
    Zoom Out
    Center Zoom
    -------------
    ......

    This is my proposal. I would like to have your opinion after a test

    regards


    Giuseppe


    PS: The plugins are already in English, Spanish and Italian
