Of course if a user is just doing analysis he would just hide the tools<br><br><strong></strong>Antonio Locandro <BR><div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: olivier.dalang@gmail.com<br>Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:57:03 +0000<br>To: a.neumann@carto.net<br>CC: qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org<br>Subject: Re: [Qgis-developer] Make QGIS interact with LibreCAD.<br><br><div dir="ltr">2013/4/22 Andreas Neumann <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:a.neumann@carto.net" target="_blank">a.neumann@carto.net</a>></span><br><div class="ecxgmail_extra"><div class="ecxgmail_quote"><blockquote class="ecxgmail_quote" style="padding-left: 1ex; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-left-width: 1px; border-left-style: solid;">
I would prefer if most of the editing tools would be available in core<br>

<div><br></div><div>Also, some user will be interested in adapting the snapping engine to suit their particular habits, which is easy when working with python plugins. And some other users won't be interested at all in this kind of tools.</div>
