Hi Werner and others,
Yes, I ran into similar workflows before as well.
For now, I created a simple plugin where you can choose the layer, field
and value to set. Then you just click-click-click all the features you
want to set the value for. Only works in edit mode.
While finding a name for my plugin, I chose 'value painter' and then I
found out that there's already a plugin called 'attribute painter'. It
does something similar, but in a more complex way. I expect too complex
for the qgis "noobs" I'm working with.
I'm not planning to upload the plugin to the QGIS repo, but the source
code is on github:
https://github.com/raymondnijssen/valuepainter
There's also a short screencast demo there:
https://github.com/raymondnijssen/valuepainter/blob/master/docs/paint_tool_demo.webm
Cheers,
Raymond

Hi Raymond,
Sounds like a blogpost with a nice explanation, that is a problem I also
have sometimes (though not with 17K).
Once you solved it it would be nice to have a manual howto get there.
regards
Werner

Yup, hidden widget was what I was thinking.
A custom python form can probably provide what you want. I think you
will be able to listen to that specific field widget and close the
form when it changes

Ah, I found it! (With a little help from Richard..)
There is a widget type "Hidden" that prevents showing up on the
form.
Still, if anyone knows of a way that also not needs to close the
form
with an OK, could save me 17k extra mouse clicks. Using actions
maybe?
Thanks,
Raymond
