Thanks Jorge for the information :-) .

You're right about my wish: I want to activate the Vertex Tool and lock it to a specific object i a specific layer using Python from a plugin (Exactly as you surmised)

Hi Bo,

I didn't investigate it much. I just tried on the console:
iface.actionVertexToolActiveLayer().trigger()
and it works. It open the vertex editor, but no geometry is "locked".
You have to manually lock your geometry with a right mouse click.

You want to mimic also the right click to selected the geometry to be
used by the vertex editor, right? I think you want to call
'QgsVertexTool::updateVertexEditor( QgsVectorLayer *layer, QgsFeatureId
fid )' but QgsVertexTool does not have bindings for python.

Maybe there is another way to do it. Let's see if someone knows how to
lock the selected geometry in Python.

Good luck!

Hi list -

Is there any way/method - using python - to activate the Vertex Tool
with a specific object from a specific layer ? The position and
attribute values for the object is known.

The situation is as follows:

  1. The user has pushed a button i a plugin dialog.
  2. The function to this event automatically generates  a polygon.
  3. The geometry is calculated from the position and extend of the
     current mapper window.
  4. The polygon is inserted in a known layer.
  5. This layer is made user editable

  6. The vertex tool is activated with the inserted polygon highlighted

Point 1-5 is working fine. It's point 6 I'm asking about
