[GRASS-user] problem with v.edit tool=merge

[Martin Landa]

Hi,

no, there is another problem. Merge tool has been updated and snap
tool not. Snap tool in v.edit is very simple:

1) select lines
2) snap *first two* lines from the list [regardless of threshold -- it is a bug]

see [1,2]

Behaviour of merge tool is a little bit different. It tries to merge
*all* selected lines.

So there is *important* question for future development of v.edit,
should be snap tool updated (snap all selected lines) or merge tool
modified according to current simplified snap tool (i.e. merge only
first two selected lines and  leave rest of selected lines untouched)?
