Hey Simon,

That is strange.  It's one of the handy features.   There is From Map
Canvas button that will swap the canvas to pick the points.

Which ones did you run into?

Regards,
Nathan

[Qgis-user] potential georeferencing changes in future?

2016-09-28 Thread Simon Muirhead
Hi, I am finding myself using QGIS more and more over ARCGIS, but then
recently I was required to georefernce and old map to digitise, and looking
at the georeferncing tool, it looked rather painful and slow e.g. entering
in co-ordinates by hand and hoping it works? compared to ARCGIS where you
can do it visiually on the screen and see the results as each control point
is added. I ended up doing it in ARCGiS and then saving as a TIFF to open
in QGIS.  I realise georefercing is slowly becoming redundant, but are
there any plans to make georerencing in QGIS more friendly?
