Check you CRS and see that they correspond. That's my first guess because of the discrepancy in the acreage Look what the project crs is and make sure the layer has the same J From: Robert Bryan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 25, 2013 1:37 PM To: 'Jake Maier' Subject: RE: QGIS crashes? Some are files I created and some are from others. I can be editing shapefile and it will crash, sometime but not always when saving. Here is a more bizarre example: Yesterday I went to add a polygon to an to an existing shapefile that I had worked on before. The add polygon process looked fine, it shows up in the attribute table, the calculated acreage is 0.004 acres when it should be 1.4 acres, and all the areas of the other polygons are OK. When I click zoom to selected rows from the attribute table it zooms to the entire polygon, but when I click the polygon on the map with the Information button there is nothing there. Then or any time in this process it may crash. This is on a map with some photos as base and a few other layers. So, I tried an experiment and opened a new QGIS project, opened the shapefile and was able to add a polygon with no problem. Then I closed the new project, opened the old project, and was able to open the edited polygon and update the properties, etc. With another project with some of the same layers I tried to make a new shapefile layer and went through all the steps, the layer was created, (all the basic files are visible in Explorer) but I could not actually create a polygon that was visible. So, I went to the simple "new project" (no rasters) described in the prior paragraph and was able to create a new layer and create the polygon I wanted. Saved that, then I could open it and see it with the old project. These issues seem to be getting more frequent. Even when I am able to create shapefiles and edit polygons I may get one to several crashes in a session.

I have minor problems but no crashes, and no problems editing shapefiles. Did you create the shapefiles in qgis, or did you get them from somewhere else?

I think it is mostly since I "upgraded" from v1.6 to 1.8. This is on a vintage 2008 VISTA machine. Are you sing QGIS and have you had any problems? -Rob Robert R.
