Re: [Qgis-user] Regular Shapes Digitising

2018-02-24 Thread gam17
Hi Patrick,
   QAD plugin provides two commands useful for you:
RECTANGLE command and POLYGON command (it draws regular polygons so you
can use it for squares).
These commands (and the options provided) are similar to the same
AutoCAD commands (look on the web for more info).
bye

Re: [Qgis-user] Regular Shapes Digitising

2018-02-24 Thread Raymond Nijssen
In qgis3 (coming super soon) there is a new "Shape Digitizing Toolbar" 
with the "Add rectangle from 3 points" tool, among many others.


This toolbar is not enabled by default, so you'll need to enable it by:

View -> Toolbars -> Shape Digitizing Toolbar

Good luck,
Raymond

I'm wondering if it will help me draw rectangles or squares more easily 
than the usual polygon thing when you have to try to straighten up the 
edges later.


thanks

[Qgis-user] Regular Shapes Digitising

2018-02-23 Thread Patrick Dunford

Good afternoon (as it is where I live)

Can someone point me to a tutorial or something about how to use the 
tools on the Regular Shapes Digitising toolbar


I'm wondering if it will help me draw rectangles or squares more easily 
than the usual polygon thing when you have to try to straighten up the 
edges later.


thanks
