<p>Hi <br>
</p>
<p>The gazette maps do not describe the area in an accurate manner
such as the way a survey diagram or mining/prospecting diagram
does with a diagram and accurate coordinate list. The gazette maps
certainly don't involve much accuracy seeing as the Ethekwini
gazette map in the link below is not drawn to scale.<br>

I did see the one using "another layer", but that is
problematic as when one is digitising (say) a town
road network you would want to honour the
straightness of the roads and then intersect them
afterwards.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

would rather set up snapping perfectly then node
intersections while digitising. As simple as stopping
a line and starting a new one instead of just clicking
a vertex at an intersection. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

Will look at the scripting options - for now this
is just a training exercise in teaching digitising
principals.<br>
