Hello again,

I just found out that You get different plugin functions:

A) select the feature (e.g. multiline), go to Tools>Buffer: You get the old 
(known) buffer function
B) do not select the feature, go to Tools>Buffer: You get the new buffer option 
with using attributes values as buffer width

It is really a very useful tool!

But function B) do not provide the opportunity to union the resulting buffer 
features. May be there is a chance to develop it?

Kindly regards
Arnd
