--- Comment #3 from Gerhard Weydt <gerhard.weydt at t-online.de> ---
Bug #130024 deals with similar issues.

To relieve possible problems because of the german text I offer a new help text
based on the german statement by Armin LeGrand.
My proposition for a new help text:
This seems to applicable only to polygon shapes.
If you switch on this mode, then you can eliminate points by dragging them near
to the imaginary straight line between its two neighbouring points. Phantom
lines from the point you drag to its neighbours are shown while the point is
dragged, and these snap into one straight line if the point is dragged
sufficiently near to this line. If you then release the mouse button, then the
point will be deleted.
The mode will be still active, hence you can eliminate other points, if you
wish to. Leave this mode by again clicking on the symbol.
