Is it possible to avoid point 8 (map display refresh with the same
vector with new name)?
This is a user error, not a problem with the GUI. The GUI is behaving
correctly. While it would be nice to make the GUI sufficiently
robust to
deal with such user errors, but I'm not sure how. You have told the
rendering system to display a map of a particular name. Then you
changed the
name of the map. Lacking cyberpsychic abilities, is no way for the
rendering
system to know the new name of the map unless you tell it. So when
it tries
to render a map that no longer exists, it correctly gives an error
message
that the map doesn't exist.
that's right, but Paulo reported something else,
6)in Layer Manager ->properties ->"Name of imput vector map" set the
new name of vector map
7)try re-render map display: get nothing.
<- here the map layer should have been rendered again. Now fixed in
all active branches.
Thanks. My mistake for reading too fast.
