-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi!
Which version of QGIS are you using and with which OS? (Might help in finding the cause of troubles). But my first guess is that those two layers do not have the same projection. Using and applying algorithms (functions) to layers you should always make sure that the layers are in the same CRS and projection. Though it might work with OTF switched on - it is always better and a sure way to compare them in the same CRS. If this still does not work .. Version and OS would be helpful (and probably some sample to reproduce) regards Werner On 04/01/16 13:31, Susan Iremonger wrote: > Hi I am having trouble erasing part of a file by using another file > as a mask and the tool Difference.
