[Qgis-developer] Toggle Editing Icon in Layer

2014-11-08 Thread Lene Fischer
Hi,
I´m working with 2.6,  in the Layer module. I find it difficult to see both the 
style and the editing pencil because they are on top of each other.
I realize that it save space in height, but it has become very difficult to 
read which layer are in edit mode.  Is there a special reason for this change 
of behavior from 2.4 to 2.6 ?
Regards
Lene Fischer

My reservation with switching solely to the python tests is that it
makes debugging a lot more difficult. With c++ tests it's easy to run
a test from a debug session in qt creator to help track down a bug.
The workflow for python tests is a lot more difficult... (or is there
a way I'm missing of running these tests through qt creator too?).

For this reason, I'd vote for c++ tests for most methods and python
tests only when anything fancy is done is the sip bindings (transfer
of ownership, etc).

E.G. the coming QEP from Nyall (about Composer refactoring) breaks 
Composer gui API, while it should mantain core. This could be included 
in an LTS release, while in QGIS 3.0 back compatibility can be discarded.


Just a question: typically an LTS brings backport updates during its 
lifetime. In case of QGIS how would this happen? Will we provideca new

always **if i can** and**IMHO** an LTS should be a tool that you know

Re: [Qgis-developer] Field Calculator "permanence"

2014-11-08 Thread Andreas Neumann

Hi Zoltan,

There are many other file formats besides shapes, including many 
databases. So people should stop thinking that the universe only circles 
around shapefiles.


With these other file formats it is not very common to ship other files 
along with the main file.


Why do you think that drag/drop or "add layer" is unintuitive. Those are 
the normal ways to load a layer in QGIS.

OK - not very intuitive, (to have to either drag and drop the qlr file

You can do that f.e. with Postgis. With shapefiles not. However, 
if you share the project with the other PC, the virtual fields 
work fine.

Hi Matthias,
Thanks for the quick answer.
The virtual field acts just like I want it to, except that it 
does not permanently store the column in the attribute table.
I tried getting clever by then adding a second 'Field 
Calculation' to update the existing 'Sheet' field from the 
virtual field, but that won't do it either.


So, for me there are two shortcomings:

 1. To be able to store and recall the 'Expression' and not lose
it after closing the Field Calculator
 2. To be able to add the virtual fields that you create, into
the attribute table.
 3. (And then of course to re-open the Shape file on another PC
and have these Field Calculations still functional)

Any further possibilities I can try?

Regards & thanks again,
Zoltan

Hi Zoltan,

Since QGIS 2.6 this possibility exists. It is called "Virtual Field".
You must not create the attribute when creating the shapefile. Just open
the field calculator, create a new field in there and check the "virtual

Hi,
I'm using QGIS 2.6.0 on Win 7 x64 - installed via OSGEO4w

Is there a way to store your field calculator expression to always
process and update that specific field, should geometry be edited or
created for that Layer?

Let's say I want to create a blank POINT shape file, with a text
attribute called "Sheet".
Whenever a POINT is created or moved, I want this field to be
dynamically updated with:

  tostring(abs(toint($y)))+tostring(abs(toint($x)))

For testing thus far have:

   * created 2 points
   * Opened the field calculator, clicked 'Update Existing Field' and
 put in the expression.
   * The two existing points now have the correct TEXT values in the
 Sheet field
   * I close the Field calculator
   * Create a new point in my layer
   * open the attribute table to find that the 'Sheet' field for this
 new point is blank
   * I open the Field Calculator and I cannot even find a way to call
 back the previous expression I used.


Am I using the correct QGIS functionality to achieve what I need to,
and if so, where am I going wrong?

Thanks & regards,
Zoltan

[Qgis-developer] Python tests and C++ tests for the same functionality

2014-11-08 Thread Matthias Kuhn
Hi,

While working on the test suite and trying to get all tests to pass I
realized that there are a lot of tests that exist in two versions: C++
and python (e.g. composerhtml, atlas composition). The problem with that
is, that they work on the same set of reference images and either one or
the other fails because of slight inconsistencies in the result (nothing
we should worry about, see e.g. [1]). I don't know exactly, what the
source of these is, I assume that either there are some
rounding/floating point differences in the python API or that meanwhile
one or the other test was modified but not both synchroneously.

What can we do?

(1) We could accept these deviations with anomalies or multiple
reference images.

(2) Or we could remove the C++ test in favor of the python test which
will test the same functionality/codepath and the python binding in
addition. That would have the advantage that maintainability will be
easier, because not every of these tests needs to be written and
adjusted twice. The only disatvantage I can see is that you then don't
know if it's the python binding or the logic behind it that made a test
fail. But that shouldn't make a big difference in the time one needs to
debug a test.

My favorite is (2).

Are there any thoughts from other devs/authors of these tests?

Best
Matthias

Yes, 2.8 LTR is the least we need to do for users that spent time to
update to 2.0.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Qt 5

2014-11-08 Thread Matthias Kuhn

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Sorry, my message was a bit short. Please read my response to Nyall for
a more complete discussion.

I just want to make sure that there are no rumours that PR1676 [1] would
break anything.
Once that's in place, we can start to check if/where are problems and
draw a migration path.

The questions concerning the migration path are, when do packagers start
to compile (the official releases) against Qt5? All at the same
time/release? (To be kept in mind: Android is already compiled against
Qt5, some older distros that have old Qt4 versions may decide to switch
even sooner than newer distros because for them it's easier to compile
against Qt5 than to patch the source code for their old Qt4 version).
Will distros offer qgis-qt5 and qgis-qt4 in parallel? In terms of
project management a clear roadmap would be good. That however is mainly
driven by political questions and not by technical questions (most
likely QGIS 2.8 will be ready for Qt5). I would suggest to wait for
PR1676 to be merged PyQt5 support to be included. Then we can test and
decide based on more solid experiences.

All the best,
Matthias

But I don't have a opinion on it - there's probably no save default for it.  In
that way having the two menu entries might have been better.

Seems like a UX question ;-)

I'm with Jürgen, it's very likely to confuse users because they don't
realize that the had a selection and then they find that features are
missing in the export.
The field calculator behavior still catches me from time to time even
though I'm aware it exists.

+1 and even without officially breaking the API, plugin devs have been

I agree with a LTS version (what's LTR??? :-) ). It should be
important that the 2.X will not be "abbandoned" like as the last 1.X
series (1.8), with the Postgres primary key bug that remained UNFIXED
and that version was pretty useless...

In terms of project management it would probably be good to have a
"recommended Qt version". To avoid the situation that certain users are
running the same version of QGIS with Qt4 others with Qt5 and therefore
some plugins work on one platform, some on others.

Debian seems to release at a rate of about 0.5/year, so we still have
more than 2 years to go before we are forced to release a Qt5 version
(we still may do it earlier if we like and we still could decide to have
a WITH_INTERNAL_QT4 CMake option ;) ).

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS 3.0?

2014-11-08 Thread Matthias Kuhn
Hi,

The confusion comes from that there are two different things:

 * Qt5 compatibility
 * Qt5 binaries

The first one is a thing about the QGIS source code (qt5 branch).
The second one is about compiling/packaging.

The first step does not break anything. And allows to deprecate certain
features (e.g. qgshttptransaction) to allow for a smooth transition. It
is possible to write code that works with both versions.

The second step may actually break things. But that is not tied to a
version tag in our git repository but to a packagers decision.

*TL;DR:*

 *  Introducing Qt5 support in the QGIS source code does not break anything.
 *  Your distro actually shipping QGIS {2,3} compiled against Qt5 may
break stuff.

[Qgis-developer] Save selection as

2014-11-08 Thread Matthias Kuhn
Hi,

I realized that the "save selection as" was moved to "save as". I
appreciate that because it reduces clutter in the layer tree context menu.
I wonder if this should be checked by default whenever there is
something selected on the layer? Just like the field calculator checks
"only update selected" by default whenever there is a selection.

I agree, LTS and reducing the number of breakages fit well together;
concentrating breakages (Qt5, Py3, layout, etc.) in a single release
seems a better option, especially for plugin developers.

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS 3.0?

2014-11-08 Thread Matthias Kuhn
Hi

QGIS 3 should come with python 3. I don't think that python 3 can be a
smooth transition so this would require us to make QGIS 4 and break
plugins once again.

Qt5 support does not require QGIS 3.

Geometry and Composer(Layout) may need QGIS 3. But then we can as well
just introduce python 3 as well.

Re: [Qgis-developer] issues in QGIS 2.6 when saving/working with projects saved in previous QGIS releases

2014-11-08 Thread Geodrinx
It is not vague:
my QGIS 2.6 on Win 7  64 bit crashes ever when exit with a minidump. 

I have no plugin loaded, also.

Re: [Qgis-developer] issues in QGIS 2.6 when saving/working with projects saved in previous QGIS releases

2014-11-08 Thread Geodrinx
In my case, on Win 7 64 bit,  QGIS 2.6 crashes with minidump each time I quit, 
also doing nothing (that is, no project, no file loaded)

It is normal ?

LTS  please.

+1000  for  LTS

I am with you:  please, stop to change the api. 
If we like new functions, please add them, without change old ones. 

Thank you
