Hi,
is there a special reason why the "All layers" snapping option works only
for editable layers?
In my current project, one condition is that all the (wfs) layers are not
directly editable.
Instead I use only one editable layer ("blackboard"), to create (or edit
existing) geometries
and I update the real wfs store programmatically.
With the current snapping options, it's impossible to use snapping,
since I have only one editing layer which contains none or just one feature.
I need to snap into features from other wfs read-only layers.
I see that the relevant code is in
net.refractions.udig.tools.edit.support.EditUtils
In searchLayer function:
if (!layer.hasResource(FeatureSource.class) ||
!layer.getInteraction(Interaction.EDIT)
|| !layer.isVisible() )
return null;
I guess this "layer.getInteraction(Interaction.EDIT)" condition, is the one
that I need to remove.
I could create a bug & patch, to add another snapping option or to simply
remove this limitation.
What do you think?
