[GRASS-user] GRASS 6.4.0 Windows, problem with digitizing tool

Since I assume that both GUIs use the v.digit programm,

No, they are completely different. The v.digit version available
in Tcl/Tk GIS.m is C + Tcl/Tk written by Radim & Glynn.
The Vdigit that is used in the wxPython GUI is C++ + wxPython
written by Martin.

You might also try the QGIS vector digitizer to edit the GRASS
data layers. Several posters seem to enjoy that route.

I also assume that the problem with the old Tcl/Tk GUI, which
is described in my first post, is related to it, right?

probably not.

[problem was:]

When I try to do the same within the Tcl/Tk GUI I can create
vectors within the specified vector map, but since I want to
digitize a raster file,this raster file isn't loaded as a
background, even if the log window says so. I even tried to
type the command by hand,but the result was the same, no
background map!

steps used?

for me on Linux it works:
{
New map
new vector map name= test_map1
Display commands = d.rast elevation.dem
}

whole command looks like:
  v.digit -n map=test_map1 {bgcmd=d.rast elevation.dem}

Hi Hamish,

Just typed in the command, just as shown in your example, but still the
result remains the same: I can start to create vectors (point, line an
polygon) but the raster file (an imported ERDAS Imagine 9.2 file) which
shall serve as a source is not being loaded into the digitizing window!
