 Do you agree ?


 I think this would be great. Since you are doing a full scan of the dataset,
 you should be able to count how many points each aggregate point represents
 right? I was thinking we could pass that the the renderer as a 'virtual'
 attribute so that we can use it to e.g. scale the symbol size.

 +1 from me to implement this anyway as a new cluster renderer (or a patch
 the point displacement renderer if that seems workable).

Actually in the threading branch I have significantly reworked the way
how the clustering is done in the point displacement renderer. A quick
test with ~75K points shows that QGIS 2.0 takes ~10 minutes to render
with point displacement, while in threading branch it is matter of a
second or two. In the threading branch the renderer uses spatial index
for clustering. Another optimization could be to build the spatial
index for a layer just once, for even better performance.

So I believe now it's mainly a matter of adding more configuration
options.to allow output similar to usual marker clustering - and
make such options default.

I would prefer not to have point simplifier somewhere in the data
access API - like Tim suggests, it is best to keep such functionality
in a renderer.

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGis Dufour crashes when using QgsMarkerLineSymbolLayerV2.setSubSymbol()

2014-01-24 Thread Matthias Kuhn

Hi Alain,

Please do file a report.

Before you do: Can you try to keep reference to the symbol you are 
adding ( self.mySymbol = createSymbol() | 
xxx.setSubSymbol(self.mySymbol) ) and see if that fixes your problem. 
Please file a bug even if it does fix it so we can still consider 
passing ownership to C++ in that bugreport.

I tested this with linux and windows 7.

I've found a workaround with QgsMarkerLineSymbolLayer.createFromSld().
This does work from within a python plugin.

QgsMarkerLineSymbolLayer.createFromSld() call setSubSymbol method from

Hello,

wrong, but can't find examples on Google.

I need to compose symbols for lines, using Svg files. This seems to
be done using one or more QgsSvgMarkerSymbolLayerV2 in a
QgsMarkerSymbol wrapped in a QgsMarkerLineSymbolLayerV2 using
setSubSymbol(...) method. Following this idea, I get QGis crashes.

I post some code at

When I comment the line calling setSubSymbol(), the layer is rendered

 Hi Martin,

 So you think the same code of the point displacement renderer can also
 be used for clustering?

 It was developed exactly for the opposite: if multiple geometries are on
 top of each other they are displaced so you can see all of the points. A
 use-case is where several people live at the same address but have
 different attributes and you want to see them all.

 I am a bit surprised that the same code could be used for the opposite -
 to cluster points that are not at the same position. Wouldn't it require
 some additional code/work to do that?

When looking into the code history, there always used to be support
for a tolerance when two points are considered to be at the same
place. So the renderer always did grouping of nearby points, although
it was not originally designed to handle lots of points. And if we
display just the group symbol (without individual grouped markers),
there is the clustered marker renderer, isn't it? :-)

From the technical point of view it is the same thing and the
difference is I think mainly in the use: point displacement is meant
for few close points (e.g. within a distance of 5 meters), while
marker cluster would be used for lots of points (and the distance is
best entered in pixels rather than map units to keep the map readable
with any scale).

Re: [Qgis-developer] On the fly simplication of point layers

2014-01-24 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

Thanks for explaining this.

I think it would be very cool to have such clustering available in QGIS.
From time to time the questions comes up - and other GIS have this
available (e.g. OpenLayers, UMN - see
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/cluster.html)

Around 10-12 years ago. I did a clustering webmap-app with Postgis and
SVG. The use case was for a geology company who has around 20k reports
in all of Switzerland - although with a focus on the german part of
Switzerland. For small map scales we wanted to display clustered
symbols, as we zoom in we wanted to display single points eventually at
a large scale. In between we had threshold values of different cluster
sizes. But I agree with you that a notion of pixels would be better than
fixed map units for that purpose.

In our webmap-app we had differents symbols for clusters (red, bigger
squares) vs. single points where no clustering was made because (blue
smaller rectangles). The clustered symbols also varied in size based on
the number of features the cluster contains - see
http://www.carto.net/neumann/temp/bis_berichte.jpg as an example and
http://www.carto.net/neumann/temp/berichte.jpg for a zoomed in view.

I think however, from the usage, UI and preferences point of view the
options for the point displacement renderer are quite different from the
point clustering. For the clustering you want to be able to have
different sizes and shapes for clustered vs. single point symbols. You
want to be able to label the cluster symbol with the number of features
it contains. You want to be able to vary/classify the point symbol based
on the nr of features the cluster contains. For the identify tool it
would still be good to see the whole list of the cluster.

Would be interesting to see if someone could work on this and if someone
could fund the work. We would certainly be interested in the feature but
have other priorities for our funding.

Thanks,
Andreas

[Qgis-developer] Blend modes and vector printing

2014-01-24 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

I know that one has to print in raster if one uses blend modes. I love
blend modes but I tend to avoid them because one has to print in raster.

My question is: is it a limitation of the qt PDF export? As far as I
know Adobe PDF supports blend modes. Could the PDF exporter of qt be
improved? As far as I know it should now be a bit easier to contribute
to qt.

Would it be an option to develop improvements in qt's PDF renderer?

A similar situation is with qt and SVG. It is sort of imported but some
features are lacking and the exported SVG structure is not optimized.

Thanks,
Andreas

Re: [Qgis-developer] Can we deactivate the Select datum transformations dialog by default?

Hi Marco

 I can live with either showing / not showing by default.
 Just note that without showing, many people are receiving wrong
 transformation results without any hint.

now I think I understand what do you mean. I just noticed that in QGIS
master the towgs parameters of CRSs in use for Portugal have vanished.
Is on purpose or should I consider it a bug?

for example in QGIS there are both the epsg 20790 that had the
parameters and its counter part without (102164) and the user was able
to choose between the two, choosing if he wanted the shift of not.

If the parameters removal was on purpose (also for other CRSs for
other countries) then we can have a serious issue.

Also I have personally a lot of difficulties understand how the datum
shift dialog works, then I guess that most of the people will have the
same problem :)

ntv2 grids were also added to the datum shift database, but never
managed to have them show in the dialog. What I'm doing wrong?

Re: [Qgis-developer] save as spatialite very resource consuming

2014-01-24 Thread Rafael Krucker

Hello all

I've noticed recently (QGIS 2.0.1, Windows 7 64 bit), that, when I'm 
processing a shapefile as layer, even very small ones, the operation 
'save as spatialite' takes forever. With a small shapefile (1 KB), the 
process of converting takes up to 3 minutes, the generated spatiallite 
is then always around 4000 bigger (4.21 MB). These ratios are the same, 
no matter how big the file is, the time taken enlarges linearly it seems.
When the export is a shapefile again, the whole thing is a matter of 
seconds.
Is this due to some kind of buffering issues or does this conversetion 
simply take that many resources?


Kind regards and thanks in advance for any pointers

and so on;

models, leaving to the user the choice of vector / raster selection;

I think that the possibility of managing, georeferencing and analyse
point clouds from laserscanner, sfm, etc, could be an interesting
chance;

some features 3D: Line3D, Point3D, QgsTINInterpolator, Vector3D;
because I dont know the C/C++ and I can't see the original

[Qgis-developer] Print composer and constrained line elements

2014-01-24 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

I know it is already feature freeze - but what I am still missing in the
print composer - is the ability to constrain a line to be horizontal or
vertical. In Inkscape you do this with the ctrl-key, which limits it to
15 or 30 degree steps. In QGIS we have something similar with the point
rotation which you can restrict to these steps.

And maybe the arrow should be renamed to line and the arrowhead
should be an option, not the default.

I often need lines in my layouts, but not so often arrows.

What do you think?

I could also wait for QGIS 2.4 of course ... I will be patient.

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS and 3D

2014-01-24 Thread Vincent Picavet
Hello Giuliano,

As for now, there is no support for 3D in QGIS, be it for visualization, or 
internally.

If you want to have some 3D features for your GIS you can :
* use qgis2threejs to visualize layers on top of a MNT with a WebGL browser
* Use the 3D features of grass through QGIS
* Use latest PostGIS versions, which allow you to manipulate 3D objects.
PostGIS + SFCGAL lets you do some computations on 3D objects with SQL. You can 
send SQL commands from within QGIS. See this video for an example and 
visualization of 3D objects with Horao (QGIS plugin to view PostGIS 3D 
objects) :
http://vimeo.com/74869530

There will probably be at some point an effort to support 3D objects in the low 
level QGIS code, and Marco already worked a bit on it I think. But this is a 
heavy-lifting task and a lot more work and funding are needed. Maybe Marco can 
elaborate a bit more on this.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Issue with standalone python script and PostGIS Layers

2014-01-24 Thread Stott James
Following on from reporting the bug, I have done more digging into the problem.

It seems to be related to styleQML lines when I check what connections are 
being sent to PostGIS. These don't disappear with each loop iteration in 
Master, but they do in version 2.0. Eventually when my script gets to 100 
connections, it hangs.

What can I do to make this work?

Thanks for the response Tim.

I have not been destroying my layers. This has not been an issue when running 
the plugin with 2.0.

This was the first thing I thought about in the version running against master 
so I added the following code to close the postgis layers as it once I am 
finished with them:

QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().removeMapLayer(layer_id)
This has not made it difference. It still hangs at the same place and I still 
get the warning that there is already too many clients when trying to connect 
to PostGIS with DB Manager or pgAdmin.

Shall I open a bug?

Hello all,

I have a standalone python script that creates a bunch of PDFs for me.

Recently this script has developed an issue. It uses QGIS-dev so it could be 
related to some of the changes in master recently as it works fine with QGIS 
2.0.

It makes about 42 PDFs then it stops.

It is not actually crashing as such, as you can see it running in task manager. 
It stays running using between 0 and 2% processor, and fluctuates a little with 
memory use (around 108840kB). But it does not produce any more PDFs. It is like 
it is stuck.

From the log file that my script creates, I know that it is hanging with this 
line of code:

vlayer = QgsVectorLayer(uri.uri(), layerName, postgres)

If I try and connect to the database using DB Manager in QGIS or pgAdmin III 
while the script is still running, I get an error saying there is already too 
many clients already. If I kill the process in windows task manager, I am then 
able to connect to the database using DB manager.

Has anyone any suggestions as to what is wrong here? Is this a bug?

I updated QGIS dev this morning using the OSGeo4W installer (its revision is 
eb9ce3a).


If you are creating postgis layers in a loop, are you making sure to destroy 
them again nicely in your loop? Anyway if it used to work before maybe there 
was a regression somewhere

Re: [Qgis-developer] Release and blockers

2014-01-24 Thread Giovanni Manghi
Hi Richard,

 Hi Giovanni,

 as you are pretty into issues as in the importance of problems, maybe
 you can create a top-3 of PR's that you like to have fixed first (in
 this weekend ;-) ).

 Then hopefully people
 1) can check if these PR's are still mergeable (I can do that)
 2) have some guidance in the 'importance' of the PR's and we can have
 some 'focus'
 3) we can ask a core dev to have a look into the code and decide if the
 fix is ok (or not!).

 Idea?

I'm late to make suggestions for features, but here following a small
list of (hopefully) issue fixing PRs

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/1071

this fix area calculations when OTFR in on (regardless of a layer is
reprojected or not). This is really hurting right now in qgis 2.



https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/1037

this should fix the value map widget, also broken in qgis 2



https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/772

this PR claims to solve memory leaks in symbology, but is unclear to
me if it is a finished job or not.

 Hello Giuliano,

Hello Vincent,
thank you for your replay :-)

 .
 If you want to have some 3D features for your GIS you can :
 * use qgis2threejs to visualize layers on top of a MNT with a WebGL
 browser

yes, I know but now I'm more interested in the analysis (section,
volume, surface, etc) than visualization;


 ..
 * Use latest PostGIS versions, which allow you to manipulate 3D
 objects. PostGIS + SFCGAL lets you do some computations on 3D objects
 with SQL. You can send SQL commands from within QGIS. See this video
 for an example and visualization of 3D objects with Horao (QGIS
 plugin to view PostGIS 3D objects) :
 http://vimeo.com/74869530

okay, it's good; I will  have a look at PostGIS + SFCGAL + Horao, it
seems to be very interesting;

[Qgis-developer] QGIS Server and null-values in GetFeatureInfo requests

2014-01-24 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi,

I have problems with NULL values and GetFeatureInfo requests. They
appear as 0 if the data-type is numeric, instead of NULL or an empty
string.

Here is an example URL:

http://webgis.uster.ch/wms/av/grundplan_av?SERVICE=WMSVERSION=1.1.1REQUEST=GetFeatureInfoBBOX=695639.462784%2C245044.002%2C695811.726216%2C245141.724FEATURE_COUNT=10HEIGHT=1075WIDTH=1895FORMAT=image%2FjpegINFO_FORMAT=text%2FxmlSRS=EPSG%3A21781X=805Y=786QUERY_LAYERS=LS%20Fl%C3%A4che%2CEOB%20unterird.%20Geb.%2CGeb.%2CProj.%20Geb.%2CEOB%20Unterstand%2CEOB%20Fl%C3%A4chen%2CSR%20Fl.%2CProj.%20SR%20Fl.%2CDBK%20Fl%C3%A4chen%2CDBK%20Linien%2CEOB%20Linien%2CGrenzpkte%2CHoheits-GP%2CRL%20Pktel.%2CRL%20Signalpkt%2CLfp3%2CLfp2%2CHFP3%2CHFP2%2CEOB%20Pkte%2CBodenbed.%20V25%2CGeb%C3%A4ude%20V25%2CGew%C3%A4sser%20V25%2CStrasse%20V25%2CBahn%20V25%2CRL%20Linienel.%2CLabel%20Pkte%20V25%2CGWS%20Linien%2CNutzungszonen%20Linien%2CAbstandslinien

My goal is to skip rows in QGIS Web Client when the value is really NULL
or an empty string so it does not pollute the tooltip.

Would this be a lot of effort to properly handle these NULL values if
the data-type is numeric?

2014/1/24 Andreas Neumann a.neum...@carto.net

 Hi,

 I have problems with NULL values and GetFeatureInfo requests. They
 appear as 0 if the data-type is numeric, instead of NULL or an empty
 string.



It is probably unrelated, but I've found a similar problem handling empty
values, it seems like in several parts of the core, QString.isEmpty is
tested instead of QString.isNull.

I mean, at least for request parameters, they should be trated as
three-state: (null, empty string and a string with not-zero length).

I've opened a bug for this and I've patched the core but I don't even dare
to propose a PR since it touches the innermost features of QGIS core.

this is the ticket http://hub.qgis.org/issues/9321

[Qgis-developer] qgis 2.2: removing spit and disabling avoid intersection of new polygons

2014-01-24 Thread Giovanni Manghi
Hi all,

a while ago I proposed to get rid of SPIT as it is unmaintained and
now redundant with a similar tool in the processing toolbox. This will
happen for 2.2?

More serious is the issue with the avoid intersection option in the
snapping dialog:

the functionality is broken as it often does not remove all the
overlapped parts, leaving behind (very) small areas and creating
multipart polygons when it is supposed to not happen.

There have been some discussion (and even a fix funding proposal) but
afaik no work has been done.

As this tool does not work as advertised and creates a lot of issues
when digitizing maps than need to be topologically correct, then I
propose to disable it until fixed (and this is a pity, as is one of
the most powerful options in qgis regarding dizigiting).

What is your opinion?

 Hi,

 I know it is already feature freeze - but what I am still missing in the
 print composer - is the ability to constrain a line to be horizontal or
 vertical. In Inkscape you do this with the ctrl-key, which limits it to
 15 or 30 degree steps. In QGIS we have something similar with the point
 rotation which you can restrict to these steps.

 And maybe the arrow should be renamed to line and the arrowhead
 should be an option, not the default.

 I often need lines in my layouts, but not so often arrows.

 What do you think?

 I could also wait for QGIS 2.4 of course ... I will be patient.


This is something on my to-do list. I think there's also considerable scope
for improving how lines can be interacted with (eg, being able to drag the
start and end points rather then using a bounding box to resize). It'd be
nice to have the ability to curve lines too. It'll have to wait to 2.4
though!

I'd appreciate it if you could file requests for any missing line
functionality that you think of.

Cheers,

[Qgis-developer] New composer's title

2014-01-24 Thread Martin Dobias
Hi

Is there any good reason for the small pop-up dialog asking for
composer name when user wants to create a new composer? There is the
composer manager where the composer can be renamed at any time, so to
me it looks like an unnecessary step and I would be happy to remove it
:-)

Regards
Martin
