Keep the id of the largest feature when splitting features

Open rnousia opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Feature description

It would be nice if the split features tool would keep the id (= update geometry instead of creating a new feature) of the largest part (largest area / longest line).

Currently the id seems to remain unchanged for the left-most feature after splitting: split_features

In applications where the lifecycle of the features are managed with QGIS, it would make more sense if the largest feature would be updated and the other, smaller features would be considered as new features (= feature with the new id).
