-2147483646 is actually QGis.WKBLineString25D, so this is the right answer :) But this is going to be removed in the future in favor of QgsWKBTypes > > Is there a way to "flatten/simplify" newer/more complex geometry types into > simple point/line/poly types? From QgsVectorLayer, you can call geometryType(). From a QGis.WkbType you can call QGis.flatType() You can also convert a QGis.WkbType to a (new) QgsWkbTypes with QGis.fromOldWkbType and have access to QgsWkbTypes.flatType() _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list [email protected] List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
