Hi, Nice to learn something new every day. Today it was opening zipped files directly. I can see that even a saved project can open data from zip file. Could there be one more row in the Files of type list: Zip (with any supported files)?
Makes me think that for delivering the whole project it would be handy to have a new "Save Project as... With All/Some Data Zipped". All or just selected layers would be saved into a zip file if possible and the whole project could be copied/mailed/installed on all the computers in a class with the most simple way. -Jukka- > -----Alkuperäinen viesti----- > Lähettäjä: edgar.sol...@web.de [mailto:edgar.sol...@web.de] > Lähetetty: 13. lokakuuta 2011 10:41 > Vastaanottaja: OpenJump develop and use > Aihe: Re: [JPP-Devel] strings for pan synchronization options are gone > > On 13.10.2011 09:12, Rahkonen Jukka wrote: > > Double step selecting may feel odd with the standard > installation but there is one plugin utilising the double > step format-file name selection.
