Hm, thinking again about it and looking at all the editing tools, symbolisation dialogs, labeling and plugins, etc. that are based on the assumption that a layer has a single geometryType, it seems to me this is something for QGIS 3... Whereas the filter approach for OGR is something that would be includeable pretty soon. Regards, Marco > Regards, > Marco > > Am Mittwoch, 26. Januar 2011, um 12.31:52 schrieb Jürgen E.
