pan while segmenting and multi segment polygons

Post by PablerasBCN »

please add option to pan while using scisors, it gets very frustrating not to be able to pan.
you could force user to hit space bar to pan since right click resumes polygon drawing.

Also is bit frustrating not to be able to input multiple polygons in one "sesions" of scisors tool but first request is much more important.

You only have to click in the pause button to pan while segmenting.

I was going to segment some walls by a road, when I realized that if you're drawing a segmentation polygon, if you resume, the polygon is lost, total boomer, please make polygon be as it was just prior to pause!

I use the mouse wheel and SHIFT to pan pointcloud
But how to pan pointcloud and polygon together?

That's the not the way this tool is designed / thought.

There are indeed two glitches that allow you to move the cloud without moving the polygon:
- export the polygon (save it) and then reload it while in pause mode. You'll then be able to pan the cloud while the polyline remains at the same position (as it's attached to the screen coordinates).
- use the shift+mouse wheel trick indeed

But both options are actually glitches ;).
