Hello Emma,
Thanks very much for your suggestions.
Pondering your workflow suggestions, are you suggesting that I create a
new project in a new version of QGIS by dragging the old project into a
empty project in the new version? Do I have that right? The .qpt file
is a print template?
It sounds workable but time-consuming. As it is, I'm up half the night
just trying to get some of this work done. I may give it a try but am
leery of investing more time in "run the Atlas and see if it works."
I do appreciate your help and will probably give it a try, all fingers
crossed.
Thanks again…
--------
Cheers, Spring

Hi Spring
I am sorry you are experiencing this. I would strongly advise you to
move up to the latest LTR of QGIS 3.36 when you can.
It sounds like there are some buggy things happening in the
background, so maybe you need a clean version.
If this was me, I would follow this workflow.
* Open up in the original version and create a .qpt from the print
layout
* Create a new product in the latest LTR
* Locate the old project in the Browser window
o Expand that project and drag the files into the new product.
* In the print layout:
o load the qpt
o Copy over the Atlas parameters from your old product (you can
have both versions open at the same time)
o Run the atlas and see if it works.
Good luck!
Cheers
Em

Hi Nigel,
Okay, note that.
However, I cannot get QGIS 3.32.3 to load copies of a couple of my
projects. It seemed to hang up while dealing with certain files
which I
then went back to the original 3.16.4 and removed. Then it would
hang
up on a different file.
In a new project, 3.32.3 will load those files but not from the
original
project. Is 3.32.3 known to have problems? It seemed to install all
right from the Windows .MSI installer.
Update: the program will actually load those files, it just takes
up 10
min. to do so. And then there are huge delays during the work
session.
The files loaded individually into a new project with no problem.
Once I finally got it working, I was able to try printing the
Atlas. No
change, it just prints one blank page. No error messages, just a
fail.
Not sure what the answer is, I don't have the time to keep trying new
versions when they are mostly a disappointment.
Nevertheless, thanks very much for your thoughts…

Cheers, Spring
