Re: [Qgis-developer] symbol levels in rule-based rendering

Hi Marco, hi Mayeul and Kimaidou I'm preparing an expertise for a recommendation with national outreach together with colleague Prof. Olivier Ertz, the main convener of OGC SLD/SE 1.2. Now I found the SLD QGIS API methods [1] (saveSldStyle and loadSldStyle in QgsMapLayer and writeSld and loadSld i

Hi, Thanks for raising this! After months of use of symbol levels in rule-based rendering (SLinRBR), I found the implementation robust. I have several colleagues using regularly my OSM styles. Yesterday I deployed it on an intranet with the webclient, see: http://www.qgis.org/qgiswiki/images/f/fd/T

Hi all After several months, I'd like to open the discussion again and suggest to merge Mayeuls patch into the master branch as well (currently only in 1.7, see also https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/pull/26) While a rule based renderer following SLD logic would be great in the future , the s

Hi devs, I agree with Marco and Martin : following the SLD logic would be great. It would help a lot people used to SLD to understand the logic of Qgis styling. I also think we should keep the logic easy to understand while not loosing too much power. Talking about SLD import/export... Using Qgis

Hi Martin I'm also in favour of a rule based renderer that follows closely the logic of SLD. It would be a big plus for QGIS server too. Currently, it's SLD capabilities are built on top of the old renderer, so no overpainting, etc. And yes, with a nice GUI, it will be as user-friendly as the o

Hi again Martin, Thanks for your notes. Below is a proposal for a compromise. I see the long term advantages of converging to something compatible with SLD and you gave good arguments in favor of this approach. Yet, since I find a few advantages in the other approach, I cannot say that I prefer one
