Hi Martin

>I would like to change the behavior so that the "map units" in snapping config dialog would mean units in project's CRS

The renaming is fine, however I think it needs all 3 modes. Sometimes people digitise against a background TMS, but have a feature model in layer units in mind (e.g. if two parcels are less than 50cm away, consider the boundaries as identical).

Regards,
Marco

Hi

Recently I have been working on some snapping improvements (more about that later) and I have found one slightly surprising thing about the configuration of tolerances: if the tolerance unit is set to "map units", it actually means "layer units" - i.e. units in layer's CRS and not in project's CRS. Recently there was even a bug report filed for that: https://hub.qgis.org/issues/11634

I would like to change the behavior so that the "map units" in snapping config dialog would mean units in project's CRS. Would there be any objections?

Alternatively we could just rename "map units" to "layer units" to make it less surprising (and eventually add a third option to use project's units).

Cheers
Martin
