[GIS] QGIS Numerical Vertex Edit – anyone else finding it doesn’t work

qgisqgis-plugins

The QGIS Numerical Vertex Edit plug-in used to work fine, but stopped working for me around about QGIS 2.6. I now use QGIS 2.8.1 Windows 64 bit.

The plug-in no longer seems able to see points or vertices on editable layers. Instead, it reports a Python code error: "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'toBool'".

Uninstalling and re-installing the plug-in has no effect.

Is this just me being silly, or is it a problem others are finding too?

Looking at the project homepage, you are not the first one to notice this. Please note that gis.se is not a bugtracker and it is unlikely that this post here will help to fix this issue.

Therefore, please use one or more of the following options to proceed

  • Create a ticker in the plugin bugtracker
  • Contact the plugin author
  • Consider funding him to fix it (or if he does not want to contract somebody else)
  • Fix the code yourself and send it to the plugin author (if it was on github like many other projects that would be a pull request)
  • If everything else fails, ask for transfer of maintainership or start a fork

As an alternative approach you can also try the Plain Geometry Editor plugin (Demo Video).
