Hi,
Is it Geometry Checker replacement for Topology Checker? It has more
options but does not support multiple layers. What is the future,
Geometry Checker or Topology Checker or both merged together?
this is the classic example of bad redundancy we would need to remove
in QGIS. Not only we have now the geometry checker and the topology
checker, but there is also a core python tool to check for geometry.
It seems to me that the last two should should eventually be merged in
the first one, considered that they do not offer any tool to fix the
geometries and that they have a few issues (slow, problems with
reprojected layers, false positives, etc.).
Just as additional note, we have two identical entries under the
Vector menu "Geometry Tools".
The cause of this is that fTools creates the "Geometry Tools" vector
menu entry internally, whereas the C++ plugins use the QgisInterface
method "addPluginToVectorMenu". I suppose the reason for the fTools
behaviour is that the QgisInterface method does not allow you to specify
the icon for the menu entry. And I suppose the reason
QgisInterface::addPluginToVectorMenu does not allow you to specify the
icon is because this would lead to potential inconsistent behaviour when
multiple plugins use the same label text but different icons. So I'm not
sure how to best solve this.
