Hi Peppe,

Just had a quick test. Works fine.
Here are some questions and remarks :

Is your proposal to replace curent merge/union bu kosmo's or to add it ?

Replace : current plugin preserve attributes of the first selected feature.
Once you know it, I think it is generally easier to use than kosmo plugin.
I would be inclined to preserve old attribute, but if we decide to replace
it, I think we must make possible to valid the merge (button OK) without
choosing explicitly a feature throught the dialog box)

Add : if we want to add a new menu, we must choose an explicit name
to differenciate both plugins (combine features and choose attribute source ?)
I think it would be simpler to use if the feature could be highlighted
while selecting the corresponding line (and without clicking the light button)

Question : wouldn't be more useful if we had the feature info (table with all the attributes of selected objects) instead of the feature internal number in
the dialog ?
In other words, could we open the info tool instead of this special dialog to
choose the feature ?

Hi all,
In the last days I worked around to Kosmo code to port some enhancements and tools into OpenJUMP that could be usefull.

Among them, I want to submit these two ones ( I added to this mail, as a extension) which are modified version of OJ CombineSelectedFeaturesPlugIn and MergeSelectedFeaturesPlugIn classes, located on select feature popup menu.

These new plugins show a dialog where user can choose, within selected feature, which attribute to copy to the new Merged (or new Combined) item. I ported a new class to OJ from Kosmo: FeatureUnionDialog. And I used another Kosmo class (FormUtil) to define some parameters for that dialog.

I used original OJ classes which I modified following Kosmo code (and used Kosmo dialog class)

I tested  both plugin and seems to me that they work fine, on executing.

I found problems on the undo action: in both plugins it restores all the original selected feature except the one, choosed during the do process in the dialog. I remember that this was a behaviour of an old version of MergeSelectedFeaturesPlugIn that was recently corrected. Anyhow I used a very recent code to modify MergeSelectedFeaturesPlugIn and CombineSelectedFeaturesPlugIn.

I add the plugins to this mail and I ask to the community an help to correct this bug. I will add these modifications to OJ NB by the time they will working fine, if you agree, of coarse

In the next months I will submit other Kosmo enhancements I am working around.

The new Combine and Merge Feature plugin, from this extension, are activated both on "PlugIn>Test" menu and on Select Feature popup menu. I also ported the translation into Finnic, German, Italian and Spanish from Kosmo (I remember that Jukka was the author of Finnic language file)

Thanks

Peppe
