I was considering it few days ago and now I think it's not the best way. The unit is strictly related to the used projection, so I see no sense in pre-selecting the unit. We should pre-select the whole projection instead. When you start QGIS, a new empty project is created and it's initially projected always in WGS-84. Then when you load a layer, you can personalize QGIS's behaviour related to this layer, but you never can set default projection of new project. So in my opinion this is the point we should change. I see two solutions: 1) use the 'Global Default Projection' from the Options dialog as initial projection of every newly created project 2) provide a skeleton file for newly created project, as it was proposed in this topic already Regards, B. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
