Hi Paolo,

sorry for the long mail. I think such requests and answers should better  
go to gis.stackexchange.org, cause a mailing list not really a knowledge  
management tool.

Her point was about having the possibility to construct polygons with  
defined line lenghts.(Thats what i understood)
1. The rectangle ovals digitizing plugin is not in the offcial repository,  
so newbies can't reach it.
2. There is still no way to control the exact lenghts of any line while  
drawing.

There is a difference whether you just digitize sth from a map, or newly  
construct a polygon from scratch.

Anyway, i just tried to show a possible way that crossed my mind with some  
accessible tools.
