In case you don't know: you can also add an attribute table to a
composer layout, but that won't be convenient if you want to print a
long attribute table over multiple pages.

There is probably a better way of doing this, but if you are talking
about a
shapefile, you can simply open the DBF file in OpenOffice or
LibreOffice,
and Print it.

Hi guys,
You can manually extract the files from the shapely installer (using
e.g. Izarc or 7zip, or possibly just by renaming it as .zip or
something), and put them in the right places.
You need to put the shapely folder (from inside PURELIB) in e.g.
C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages\, and the geos.dll and
libgeos-3-2-2.dll in I think C:\OSGeo4W\bin, although instead of
installing those I seem to have got it working by editing
C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages\shapely\geos.py to use the
lib from OSGeo4W instead (C:\OSGeo4W\bin\geos_c.dll).
For the record, there is also an open ticket (with a suggested script)
for registering the OSGeo4W Python with Windows, so that python
package
installers can find it: http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/114
Regarding the profile tool plugin, Micha, it definitely runs on
Windows.
But on one of my machines I also got that error message about having
no
Qwt5.
If I remember correctly, the problem was something like this: it
requires the latest Qwt5 (or PyQwt5) in the OSGeo4W repository, but
this
machine only had an older version installed, and the OSGeo4W installer
was not showing the latest version for some reason.
I believe to fix it I uninstalled PyQwt5 and Qwt5, then reinstalled
them.

There is a windows installer for Shapely.
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Shapely#downloads
The problem that I ran into was that the installer defaults to the
Python install listed in the Registry. For me, (and probably most
people), that is not the Python instance installed by OSGEO4W. At
least last time that I attempted the install, there was no way to
tell
the Shapely installer to use a different Python instance.
David.

Hi Micha
Concerning the 'Profile from Line' plugin, I've opened a ticket some
months ago at OSGEO4W's bugtracker asking for packaging of a more
recent version of the Shapely package but haven't had a reply. I
guess
they haven't gotten around to do it yet.
However, I believe there must be a way of installing Shapely (and
other Python packages) separately and then make them available
inside
OSGEO4W. Unfortunately I have never tried to do so, as I never had
such a need. Maybe others can help out.
Best regards
2011/8/31 Micha Silver <[email protected]>:
I'm trying to install the Profile Tool plugin on an OSGeo4W setup.
The
plugin won't install saying it needs Qwt5, but that library should
be
install by the OSGeo4W-setup.
WHat am I missing?
BTW, the "Profile from Line" plugin need s Shapely 1.2 and the
OSGeo4W has
shapely 1.0. So is there no profile tool for Win users?
Thanks,
Micha

Hi there,
I *think* the area calculations are always in the unit for the layer's
CRS. So you could either:
- find out what this unit is, and convert the areas to square feet by
multiplying by the correct factor, or
- convert the layer to a CRS which uses square feet.
N.B. there is a feature request to enable coordinate conversion in the
field calculator (although I didn't mention that it would be useful
also
for area and length calculations). See http://hub.qgis.org/issues/

The area calculations from my field calculator are in an unknown
unit.
I
simply want my units to be square feet. How can I set my units in the
field
calculator??
