Hallo Chris,

Hope you are well??

Thanks for the reply.

Why are you using "Add polygon feature" when your goal appears to be adding 
points?
Sorry, I now realised that I wrote “polygon feature”. I actually use “Add point 
feature”

What is the geometry of your shapefile layer?  If you intend to have points in 
it, then the geometry should be "point".
The geometry is Point.

I am counting informal structures in our project areas.
I created a shapefile layer and use the “Toggle editing – Add polygon feature”  
function to add a point. Every structure gets a dot.
