Description (last modified by kr12)

It would be nice if "distribute nodes" would work with circles and bended ways.

For bended ways you may need to select some nodes to keep the shape.

Any news on this, please?

For circles this is possible: Help/Action/AlignInCircle

Replying to skyper:

For circles this is possible: Help/Action/AlignInCircle

It aligns as a circle but doesn't distribute the nodes equally.
This is a circle after Align Nodes in Circle:

Please read carefully: Select the way (circle) and one of its nodes.

Damn... I am sorry for this. Thanks!

Can I suggest that nodes that are connected to other ways and/or have tags should be kept on their place and not moved when distributing the nodes on a circle? (or it's out of context?)

For example, this:

Gets into this after distributing the nodes:

There is also Help/Action/SimplifyWay and the simplifyArea plugin.

Anyway it would be nice to have a smarter "distribute nodes".

Description: modified (diff)

why not? This is vary easy to implement next behavior: nodes distributed in equal distance along existing shape. A bit harded implement smothing shape (vith spline) before distributing nodes to achive much better results.
