Hi Jukka,

  You always seem to be asking for the same tools as our in-house users.
Whenever I hear the same request from two different sources, I listen.
Rapid access to  length and area information is available when the View->Map
Tooltips option is enabled and you hover the mouse over a feature.

Attribute editing one feature at a time sounds good, but in general it is
not possible to guarantee that a feature's attributes will all fit on one
page.  In some cases you simply trade a horizontal layout for a vertical
one.  Perhaps you could point to an example of another piece of software
that you think does a good job with this problem.

regards,
Larry Becker

Hi,

Is there already somewhere in OpenJUMP a tool for getting the perimeter
and area of one selected polygon, or lenght of one selected line?  The
area/lenght calculator in the Analysis is a fine tool, but I need very often
this information for just one feature, and I would like to be able to get it
simply like point-and-shoot.  I believe this is quite a common need for
other users as well.

Another thing I am missing is a user friendly way to edit attributes of
selected features.  Now I can do it by selecting the feature, using Feature
info tool and then editing data on tabular form. However, I think that
tabular form is good for showing attribute info but not so good for
editing.  I would prefer having a bigger sheet for editing attributes, one
page per selected feature.  Does this sound reasonable?

Regards,
