To my knowledge QGIS functions as a nice GUI to GRASS, the data handling is still done in GRASS. QGIS itself has a native interface to PostGIS which works better every release and that allows you to render PostGIS-stored data but you won't be able to use it for editing. Yesterday I had a try with uDig which actually allows you to load data from a PostGIS DB and, manually move polygon nodes around like you did in CorelDraw and write the result back to the DB. The 1.1M2 beta still has some bugs but it looks very promising. Unfortunately it has a big drawback in that you have to load yet another copy of the Eclipse environment and another Java runtime if you don't build from source. I like Eclipse and I heavily dislike Java at all so I'm indetermined if we really can recomment this to the user, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
