I worry about overloading the context menus too.  Actually, the view context
menu is not too bad (just 21 entries).  The layer name context menu is where
it gets crowded (33 items, counting separators).

I guess Peppe's original point was to keep paste together with copy.  Also
the new idea is to "Paste items at Click Point" which, like the Rotate menu
item, needs to be a right click entry.

mhm.. rotation yes.. but i am not sure about "paste on point"..

Regarding the clutter on the layer name menu, the recently added Extract
options could be moved to the Layer main menu.  We could also reduce some of
the duplication like "Select Current Layer Items" which is a duplicate of
Edit->Select Layer Items.

yep .. could be done, although i am using it quite often :)


just a thought,

sounds pretty easy?
well.. you are the expert :)

but we may consider it not to move to the mouse menu but to a "normal"
menu.. because I already become the feeling it becomes to heavy.. the
menu (just a thought)
would be cool to have submenus for the mouse (or maybe not ;)

I talked it over with my internal users and they added a few things to
the
wish list.  They really want to be able to select some existing
features,
paste them into a layer, have the newly pasted features become the new
selection, and automatically invoke the move tool so that they can do
fine
adjustments.  Rotation is also sometimes necessary, so a move tool that
becomes a rotate tool when the shift key is held down would be a plus.
 All
of this still sounds pretty easy.

Hi Peppe,

  I know SkyJUMP's users would like to have a "Paste at Cursor"
function.
Seems like a simple thing to implement, but very useful.  I'll add it
to
my
TODO list.

  You occasionally have some pretty good ideas!

regards,

Larry

Hi all,
I found very useful the copy/move/past tools to
populate a map with complex objects which I have to
use as point symbols.

I wander if it is possible to have a tool (on layer
view menu) like "Paste (selected items) to these
coordinates" (the coordinates of the mouse arrow)
which probabily makes everything easier
Thanks,

Peppe
