Re: [QGIS-Developer] QGIS 2.18.x Attribute Table Performance
Hi Giovanni Yes, confirm that it is working well now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBh0pzI2A5c from over 2 min to 4 seconds to load the same table. BIG thanks for everyone behind the scene. I believe the fix is done by Nyall, so a spacial thanks to him. read over and understand that this issue was in discussion for quite some time. Glad its fixed now.

[QGIS-Developer] QGIS 2.18.x Attribute Table Performance
Hi, I'm facing a HIGHLY DEGRADED performance with attribute table opening with version 2.18.x (2.18.8 and 2.18.7) when we have more than 100K rows. (in this case 161K) I'm looking at an OLD application done 5 years back with a custom QGIS 1.7, PostgreSQL 9.0 and PostGIS. The performance at that time was high commendable and it worked very well. See the video here; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rjeqgFK5GA (this video was taken on a Virtual Machine) Recently we stepped into upgrade the technology stack and to my surprise, the current version of QGIS 2.18.8 is way TOO slow and this goes all against the QGIS in the Government environment. While keeping the DB on the VM environment, we tested it on different platform and version; QGIS 2.18.8 (latest) ruining on Windows 10 environment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k19tEqSK-1Y=64s Took nearly 2 minutes to open !!! QGIS 2.18.7 ruining on MacOS environment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1eg2K17Z1E=15s Again took more than 2 minutes to open !!! QGIS 2.14.14 (LTR) ruining on MacOS environment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv-qklLFCHA Took only 5 seconds to open :) So, it appears that something has gone SERIOUSLY WRONG between the version 2.14.x and 2.18.x Since 2.18.x is marked as LTR version, I really hope this issue is fixed since most of the government environments adopt only the LTR version and with such performance it goes against QGIS. The next LTR is 3.2 which is more than a year later. Can you please look into this issue? Thanks and Cheers !

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS Crash - Serious problem in 2x
Hi Jorge Tornero, Bernhard, Matthias, Nyall, All Thanks for taking up the scalebar issue. I agree that in most cases, the scalebar is more of an academic / customary. It hardly gives a true measurement. Users generally use that as means of comparison and not to measure the exact distance. IMO, the scalebar makes sense when you have maps in large scales like 1:100 better. Otherwise, its just an estimation. Hope QGIS can provide a solution.

[Qgis-developer] QGIS Crash - Serious problem in 2x
Hi Developers Encountered a very serious problem, looks like this issue is there in 2.x Ways to reproduce; 1. Add a world boundary shp file in wgs84 (you can use other files too) http://thematicmapping.org/downloads/world_borders.php 2. Open the print composer, add a new map 3. add scale bar 4. close the composer, return back 5 remove the layer from layer list 6. boom, qgis crash hope you can fix this soon, thanks The scale bar issue 1. When a file is degree (wgs84), the scale-bar in print composer is useless since its trying to use the map unit. 2. Its logical that, in map composer its always linear map unit as in meter, feet, km, etc 3. using qgis in schools and this pose a serious issue, since the users dont understand projection etc. 4. the expected behavior is, immaterial of underlying projection the scale-bar should have the option to use linear map unit, specially meters, km, mile 5. read in stackexchange, this is a known issue. hope the dev community can help to fix this one. thanks a lot. hurt my fingers, not able to type proper :( cheers ted ___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer

Re: [Qgis-developer] Master branch splash screen
Think the issue is dragged for no reason. We have a dev / master branch splash screen that says 1.9 alpha while we debate on leaf ... its important to have a splash screen that's relevant. So, high time that we change that. The debate can go on after that.

Not sure I understand the leaf (?) background, though QGIS is used quite a bit for forestry and bio-sciences. I just like the colors. It will only be used for a couple of days, and there are a lot of other things that still requrire attention before the Hackfest and FOSS4G, so I think I'll leave it. Just a thought: maybe instead try a bunch of translucent icons (new icons for add layers?) floating/swirling around. I realize this is just an interim splash, but could be something like that might make a good graphic for the web site as well. That really is one of QGIS strongest core features: its ability to work with so many providers, both open and proprietary. Plus those new layer icons look good. Sorry, I don't think I can pull that off. If the new group photo is similar to the last two (a row or two of faces), then the use of both dev and master words in the layout means dev may cover some faces. 'Master' is really from git nomenclature, while dev is probably more commonly understood. So, I suggest just removing master and lowering dev to make more room for the photo. Maybe try dev in the master's yellow, then. Once we have some photos to chose from, I'm sure we'll find a way to make a decent splash. I'm not emotionally invested in either master or dev use. If we need the space, I'll happily get rid of master.

[Qgis-developer] Geopackage, Spatialite v4.1 QGIS v2.0
All, Spatialite 4.1 released recently. As far as I understand, the proposed OGC's GeoPackage is based on spatialite. For long time, I notice that spatiliate is kind of ignored (may be due to interest level) and never got the full attention of the developer. Even today, the only version supported is sptialite 3.8 in spite of v4.0 having some great features. Is it possible to have a full support for spatialite in upcoming releases, if not v2.0. This will give put QGIS in ahead in race. Really like to see v4.1 supported out of the box in QGIS 2.0 is possible.
