Digitizer Toolset

The Digitizer Toolset hosts shortcuts for all of Global Mapper's vector digitization tools in one window. The dialog can be docked for ease of use.

Similar to the Digitizer menu, tools that cannot be used with the currently selected data will be disabled and appear grayed out. Use a selection tool, such as the Digitizer tool, to select data for editing.
