Feature: New constraints for advanced digitizing panel

The advanced digitizing panel now includes two additional soft constraints (snapping guides) for allowing users to capture positions relative to existing features. These constraints are optionally enabled and include:

  • Line extension: QGIS will provide a constraint that traces the extension of a line, based on the segment orientation defined by the selected vertex
  • Xy vertex: QGIS will provide a constraint that runs perpendicular to an existing vertex in vertical or horizontal orientation.
