[Qgis-developer] No symbol renderer... thoughts?
Hi all, I find I'm often adding layers to a map solely for labelling, and having to set the symbology for these layers to a 100% transparent symbol so that the features themselves aren't shown. This seems rather hacky and inefficient, since QGIS is still rendering these feature, they just aren't being shown. Consequently, I'd like to add a better method for having layers with no visible features. As far as I can see, there's three possible options for this: - Add a no symbols renderer. - Allow the first symbol layer to be removed, so that a symbol can have no layers - Add no fill/no line/no marker symbol layers What would be the preferred solution, from a design and UX view? I'm leaning toward the no symbols renderer option myself, but thought I'd seek feedback before digging into this.

I'd vote for the last option as it'd be compatible with rule based symbology, which could be useful when coupled with the [x] show layer count (simple eg creating a ELSE rule with a no-symbol layer to keep track of nb of features not rendered.).

[Qgis-developer] CMake error from QGIS 2.4.0 in Windows 7
Hi, I am trying to compile qgis 2.4.0 in Windows 7 for Visual Studio 10. I have been trying to set up all the required dependencies with CMake 3.0. And I have been able to link all the dependencies by using OSGeo4W, even though there are lots of missing instructions on qgis website for Windows installation. But, now I am getting error saying below: CMake Error at cmake/FindSIP.cmake:54 (MESSAGE): Could not find SIP Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:569 (FIND_PACKAGE) I installed SIP from OSGeo4W, but it seems like cmake cannot find the link. I looked at some archives, some previous posts were saying, in general this error is coming from when we are missing python-sip-dev. But, OSGeo4W only provides sip which might mean that sip should work. I think the current sip from OSGeo4W includes python-sip-dev too. If this is the case, how can I resolve this error issue?

Re: [Qgis-developer] MetaSearch dependencies
I am not sure exactly if it's really a dependency problem. I pasted the warnings here, it mentions MetaSearch, that's why I thought it is related. But as it is complaining about a missing __init__.py in a python site-packages directory it might as well be a distribution or local configuration issue. Maybe somebody with more python experience can shed some light on this. http://pastebin.com/RiNwcjud On Jun 28, 2014, at 12:42, Jürgen E. Fischer j...@norbit.de wrote: 2.6?

Hey everyone, *Weekly Report 6* *What was done this week?* - Worked on ways to implement the direction/angular constraint. Have to try more than one approach to see which one is working best for the project. *What is the plan for next week?* - Will continue to try different approaches and test the data on them. Implementation of this constraint is time consuming. Mainly because of the need to figure out which approach works best for our specific requirements. - Will also review the timeline for the project as there might be need to make some changes. *Wiki page : *http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/nishithm *Code repository :* https://github.com/nishithm/schematization Thanks and regards, Nishith Maheshwari Lab for Spatial Informatics IIIT Hyderabad ___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer

Re: [Qgis-developer] No symbol renderer... thoughts?
Hi, excellent idea if we get speed improvement ! I don't have QGIS running here right now, but I remember having seen a no symbol checkbox in rule based renderer. If we look for consistant UI, we should have the same checkbox for classical renderers on symbol level. I remember being puzzled when I discovered that and didn't find it in classical symbology. I my experience, users didn't discover displacement point renderer by themselves, because it's the lowest entry in the listbox. I suspect we can expect low usage of no symbol renderer if we put it there.

I'd vote for the last option as it'd be compatible with rule based symbology, which could be useful when coupled with the [x] show layer count (simple eg creating a ELSE rule with a no-symbol layer to keep track of nb of features not rendered.). You can already have no symbol for a rule.
