Hi all, Another new plugin advertising! I just published this morning my first plugin here: http://planet.qgis.org/plugins/EasyCustomLabeling/ http://planet.qgis.org/plugins/EasyCustomLabeling/
*This plugin quicly duplicates a vector layer or only selected features into a new memory layer, ready to use for data defined labeling. * It duplicates all layer fields and adds specific fields for advanced labeling. New layer is created with centroids of source layer, keep it light and fast. "LabelField" can be used to store a multiline calculated label. It is filled with source layer "display field" (layer properties / general). Very usefull if using QGIS 1.7 without expression generator, or if manual modication is needed without destroying original data. If using "Memory Layer Saver" plugin, labels will be saved along with the project as gml. *It works well with 1.7.4.* *There still is work to do with QGIS 1.8 and higher because of new gdal gml behaviour *.
