Bug report #17240

When a node on the end of a path is selected and dragged, the whole line moves instead of just that node

Description

This is not very intuitive with the new editing system. If my line has a node on the end of it, and I put the mouse over that node and click it, I should be able to drag just that node to a new position (as was the case with the previous digitising/editing system). Instead, the whole line moves (like the moving tool does).

Same comment as #16836-8

I can understand your point but it could be very well a decision taken on purpose by who re-designed the tools. This should be discussed in the community and then eventually consider it a bug.

I agree with Patrick. Selecting a single vertex, only that vertex should be moved, not the whole segment or even the whole feature.

Not sure about this one at the moment. It was definitely happening yesterday when I was trying to edit some data, but I haven't nailed it down today.
