Hi Stefan, Current plugin with option decompose checked is OK for me (I think this is the one you need for OSM and I want to keep it) -> every original geometry component goes in one of Point/LineString/Polygon
but current plugin with "decompose unchecked" produces the following Empty -> empty layer Point -> Point layer LineString -> LineString layer Polygon -> Polygon Layer MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, GeometryCollection -> Mixed layer This one seems useless to me (except if you confirm this option is also need to process osm) and I want to replace it by other propositions which makes more sense (shapefile like or geometry dimension) Let me know if I understood your comment correctly.
