[Gvsig_english] two shapefile editing questions

[Joanne Cook]

Hi Wolfgang,

That's exactly what I am thinking of in question 2. An archaeological example would be a series of holes where posts have stood, which all need to be grouped together to form a "house". 

Many thanks

Jo

Dear Joanne,
currently, these two features are not available in gvSIG 1.1.2. 
1.9 unstable contains a new function which enables you to merge neighbouring 
features during editing, but I fear that this is not what you are searching 
for. Are you thinking of something like a multipart features?

Best
Wolfgang
