+
+	* src/main/java/de/intevation/flys/client/client/ui/map/DrawControl.java:
+	  Set the 'typ' attribute of a feature that is added to the vector layer.
+	  Features, that are loaded into the layer from GeoJSON file keep their
+	  existing 'typ' attribute. New features get the attribute from combo box.
+
 2011-08-31	Felix Wolfsteller	<felix.wolfsteller@intevation.de> 
 
 	Added cross section translation.
