[QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-developer] Select Within plugin, for Centroid Within and Point on Surface Within selections

[Stefan Keller]

Salut Harrissou,

Many thanks for the hint! My bad.

It's actually "Extract by location" what I'm looking for.

I somehow don't get the logic:
1. of the Vector menu tool names (Analysis, Research, Geoprocessing,
Geometry and Data management); and
2. the criteria, when a Geoprocessing algorithm is being shown in the menu
(like "Select by location"), and when not (Extract by location).

:Stefan
