Description
As reported by a user:
I had some issues with the splitting function and found out, that it occurs when working with different coordinate systems in multiple layers.
For example:
I have prepared the following layers:
a polyline in EPSG:31255
a pointlayer A in EPSG:31255
a pointlayer B in EPSG:4326
- When opening the project I can split the line without any problems
- then I record a point in the layer B (4326)
- after that I cannot split the line (31255):
- then I record a point in the layer A (31255)
- after that the splitting is possible again
Somehow the switching between the CRS affects the layer identification.
I’ve shared the project with „support“ and here is a short video:

Research direction
Reproduce the sequence with a polyline and point layers in EPSG:31255 and EPSG:4326, recording a point in each layer before attempting to split. Start by tracing the split tool's layer identification and CRS-switching path; done means splitting remains available after recording in the differently projected layer.
