[Gvsig_english] Select features by location

[Sergio Clark]

Hi Silvio,

It's possible to do that using the the tool 'Selection by layer', which 
is inside View menu. This allows you to select features within an active 
layer that have a spatial relationship with another layer also loaded in 
your ToC (same as, intersected with, in contact with, contained in, 
contain, over...).

Note that you must have features selected within your active layer 
before using this tool, because it works with 'Selected items of a layer...'


Best regards,

Sergio.
