Hi, QGIS is using OGR to read/write shapefiles.
http://www.gdal.org/drv_shapefile.html does not mention the .cpg files, so I assume, OGR does not support them. If you want to see this addressed, I would contact the GDAL/OGR devs. Andreas On 2016-07-07 12:46, burghardt.scho...@stadt.wolfsburg.de wrote: > Hi, > I would say that QGIS does not use the .cpg file.
