Hi all I am happy to announce that I have just merged Arun's work on symbology. He has done a great job and after some testing I think the code is ready for prime time.
What to expect? - style manager has been greatly improved: - grouping of symbols (including child groups of groups) - tagging - "smart" groups (showing only symbols matching some criteria). - search - symbol selector and properties dialogs have been integrated to just one dialog, improving the usability a lot - style database is now stored in a SQLite database rather than an XML file for better scalability - style import improvements: load style directly from given URL, saving imported symbols into a group - SVG fill: shows directories for easier traversal through the SVG directories - surely some more goodies I've forgotten to mention! Please note that with the transition of styles to SQLite database you will find your style empty - but don't worry! You can import all your saved symbols and color ramps from ~/.qgis/symbology-ng-style.xml - from now they will be stored in ~/.qgis/symbology-ng-style.db. Arun: thanks for your hard work and I hope you will continue to contribute to QGIS! :-) Also many thanks to Nathan for co-mentoring and lots of great ideas for the GUI improvements that landed in the code.
