Hello Marco,

Note that I'm currently working on a new Algorithm that supersede dissolve tool.

Here is how it should look like :

Name : "Aggregate"

Parameters :

    * input vector layer

* group_by expression (field name or complex expression, possible to add conditions on geometry predicates)

* geometry aggregator : collect (multipart) or combine/union (single part)

    * Fields aggregators, for each field :

aggregate function, input field, delimiter (for the concatenate aggregator)

        output filed definition (type, length, precision)

with possibility to add/remove output fields, import the fields from an existing layer

The UI should looks like the Refactor Fields algorithm.

With this it should be possible to set a neighborhood condition in the group_by expression.

Cheers

Arnaud

Hi,
I recently answered to a question on GIS StackExchange [0]. In this question, the asker was looking for a way for dissolving features using an adjacency criterion instead of using common attribute field (please, follow the link below for a better understanding). This feature is already available in the analogous ArcGIS tool when the"Create multipart features" option is enabled and I think it could be of interest having an additional option like this in the "Dissolve" tool main dialog for next releases. I never submitted a feature request on the QGIS Project site but, since there is already a (very rough) code and a general idea on how to approach the issue, I didn't know if this was the case of adding it there. Otherwise, let me know if I need to add it on the QGIS Project site (if this is the case, I'm sorry for wasting your time).
Regards,
Marco
