Digitalizing
========

To start digitizing new features `Switch modes`_ to digitizing.
To start digitizing new features, enable the **Edit mode** in the main menu (*pencil button*) and select the layer on which you want to add a new feature (the layer will be highlighted in grey).

A new combobox will appear next to the menu button which lists the layers
available for digitizing.

Navigate the crosshair in the center of the screen to the desired location and
click the pencil at the lower right of the screen to confirm the creation of a
new point feature.
click the **+ button** at the lower right of the screen to confirm the creation of a

Lines and polygons
------------------

Navigate the crosshair in the center of the screen to the desired start of the line
and click the pencil at the lower right of the screen.
Proceed with adding points or removing points until the line or polygon is finished
and then click save.

Click the **Minus (-) button** to remove the last added node.

Click the **Close (X) button** to cancel the feature creation completely.

When you have added a least 2 nodes for a line or 3 nodes for a polygon, a **Save button** will appear. Click on it to finish your sketch.

and the user will be asked to enter the attributes for the new feature.
The form which appears allows entering attribute values for the new feature. The checkboxes
at the right of every attribute allow for remembering each attribute individually.
