Hi Hilpers,
Is this about label and symbol backgrounds?
We have a QEP about that (see
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/63) and an
offer from Oslandia.
Can you please review this QEP and let us know if it matches your needs?
If yes - would you be able to contribute financially? It is quite
complex to implement this and I have to collect around 18k € to finance
>it. So I would be interested in financial contributions.
Thank you for your reply,
Andreas
Hi Andreas,
as I understood the feature request, he means a "real" mask that is not
only masking the display, but all features outside of the mask for any
geoprocessing.
I faintly rember this from ArcGIS which I didn't use for ages, so I have
no idea how well this is working how its done technically.
But the idea, that when working with numerous layers of different extent,
not to have to crop them them each individually to fit into a window of
interest, but just to assign a mask layer/bbox to them, sounds very good
to me.
Cheers
Bernd

Hello everyone,
I regularly face the issue that I want to set masks for layers of my
choice
based on one layer´s geometry.
I know there is a plugin available which handles labels *but not* the
geometry of layers to be masked.
In my oppinion a mask should make geometries / raster cells outside the
specified mask disappear. The user should also be able to exclude layers
from being masked. After searching for more than a year, I want to ask
how
you handle this pretty common scenario. Furthermore, four years after
the
last discussion about masks here on QGIS Nabble I also want to ask,
whether
developers are planning to incorporate this feature in V3.
It would be great to have that masking capability option within the
layer
options or even the projects settings.
Thanks
