Hi,
The problems seems more that the standard has not been explicitly
written. If I understand the last comment thought about QGIS, It seams
that QGIS does try to repack the file when closing it to make it compatible
with Esri's way of deleting geometries... That may be where the current
deleting problems, if any, originates from...

If I understand the technical aspects correctly (marking shapes with a
* rather than actually deleting them), the problem seems to be departing from
the shapefile "standard".
One of QGIS's strengths should be interoperability rather than inventing
one off, wierd standards to frustrate compatibility.
I don't think this is behind the failure to save problem but is concerning
nonetheless . . . .

various errors in editing shapefiles in QGIS 2.10 and 2.12. Some weeks ago, I
reported an error that does not allow for proper feature deleting. The shapes I
deleted were gone in QGIS, but they were still present in ArcMap. Matthias

working on a fix for this issue and targets the 2.14 release. GDAL 2.0 would
still be nice to also have the geometry issue fixed :) Best regards --
Matthias Kuhn If it turns out that your problems come from the same origin,
maybe it’s time now to disable shapefile editing in QGIS until those problems
are solved. Maybe someone more competent than me can give information to the
list on the troubleshooting status? QGIS is such an outstanding piece of
software, we’d love to see that errors disappear! Mit freundlichen

Betreff: Re: [Qgis-user] New Shapefile Features Fail to Save Thanks for those
ideas. I can check off most of those items except upgrading. This is new
development so likely computer based? Rather than QGIS. I'll look at the
bug reports; this is a pretty serious error. Thank you . . . . . . Cheers . .

Hi, I have done this in the past without errors in QGIS. I would upgrade to
the latest version. Then to figure out where the problem is, I would: Make sure
that both layer are polygon layers (and not lines and polygons), that both have
the same CRS (along with the project CRS), that both have the same fields and
that the "receiving layer" is in editing mode, and saved subsequently.
I would limited the amount of open files and open plugins. Try copying
polygons from a newly created file to an empty newly created layer in QGIS and
not a shapefile that was previously manipulated in other softwares. All this
could help you find the source of the problem. I would also look at the bug
reports to see if it is an issue for that version. Hope this helps. Nicolas

QGIS 2.10.1 and have done so without significant problems for many months. I
am attempting to create simple polygons in a shapefile by direct vertex entry
or copying polygons from another shapefile layer and pasting them into the
active layer. In almost every case, these features disappear. There is
an entity entry in the attribute table but there are no polygons created. In
one case a polygon was created but it was not the shape that I digitized; no
more polygons could be created although the process for doing so appears to be
working. No error messages were created. The CRS for the project and the
shapefile are the same. The shapefile can be opened in another GIS but
has no content. Here are some product details: QGIS version
2.10.1-Pisa QGIS code revision d20c5b7 Thanks very much for any help
you can render, Cheers . . . . . . . . Springfield Harrison
