I found a shapefile of WVa counties with names here: https://data.wvgis.wvu.edu/pub/Clearinghouse/boundaries/wvCountiesUSCensus/

This is the data I am using.

I set the symbology to color each county by name, and the county names then appear in the Layers panel.

I am having trouble with this.


It's "Symbology" (not styles). I the Symbology tab, choose at the very top "Categorized" (instead of Single Symbol), then select the "COUNTY" attribute column for categories.

You'll find this explained in the QGIS Documentation, here:

https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/vector_properties.html?highlight=categorized#categorized-renderer




When I highlight the layer and right click there is no "Styling" option available.
There is a "Styles" option which is opens a color wheel of sorts.
If I choose "Properties"
I see nothing called "Styling" listed.

I downloaded the manual (QGIS-3.16-DesktopUserGuide-en.pdf) but could not find specific instructions.

Thanks,

HTH,

Greetings,
I have a state county outline layer in a project and wish to be able to see a list of the county names in the Layers column.
I looked through the options for the Layers Properties and also went through the menus but I saw nothing obvious.

How might I accomplish this?
Thanks,
WV-Mike
