Hi all, QgsMapToolEdit and QgsMapToolCapture are in src/app and not available in Python. But both this tools can be useful as base classes for creating custom digitizing tools. Are there any specific reasons for having them in src/app? Is it possible to expose them in Python? Thanks -- Alexande

Hi Angus We have met for sure. How ya doing? Yes, the simulation model will be open source :). In the longer term it would be nice to make this be part of a larger forest simulation, including links to a spatial management model, but that is not the immediate priority. Thanks for the tips abou
