Hi, Is the insert fired automatically when a new feature is ready? Just wondering what happens if saving is manual and user has been panning around so that the new feature is outside the current viewport. What about if new feature is originally created outside the current bounding box by

Hi Jukka, Yes, inserts are more tricky than other modification types. However, IMHO, a properly modeled database will include sequence generators, rules, or triggers on database tables enforcing the primary key attribute. My first iteration through this will be to simply target the most

I'm programmatically invoking a refresh on the layer - any data currently in the bounding box of the viewport is reloaded from the datastore ... which includes the newly inserted feature. I suppose I could be smarter about this and reload all features whose bounding boxes match the bounding

Ah, great, thanx Stefan. I'll add the requests there so others can comment/poke holes/massage/scrap the ideas. Yeah, OJ is by far my preferred desktop GIS client. The fact that OJ is so tightly coupled with JTS (which is the backbone of PostGIS through GEOS) makes it great to work with.

Hi Kevin All your propositions seem reasonnable and valuable for OpenJUMP. As Stefan said, the main problem is development resources. I cannot evaluate precisely the work to do without a deeper look, but it concerns core classes and will need caution and tests. Are you volonteer to develop
