It's in early stage, I've start it as test project. User can load photos, change thumbnails size (in some range) and view full image after clicking on thumbnail. Also plugin creates an point shapefile based on photos EXIF tags in same way as Photo2Shape does. But photos don't stored in any place and after reopening project you need to load photos again. There is some performance and quality issues with thumbnails generation.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Render miniature rasters?
Hi Magnus If the images are related to vector features and the image path comes from an attribute, creating a new renderer seems to be a good choice. If the images are not feature / attributes related (and you don't have thousands of it on the canvas), you could also implement the images as canvas items. I have code for a very simple plugin that inserts/removes image items at click locations. The plugin was used for educational purposes, but maybe it could be enhanced to something useful: www.hugis.net/imageplugin.tgz Regards, Marco Am Mittwoch, 21.

Martin Dobias skrev: You can check out the player plugin [1] from my former qgis-mapper project - it uses canvas items to show thumbnails of geotagged images along the track. It also supports grouping of images when there are more of them close to each other. This is very close to what I want to do, ideally showing a directory of geotagged images as miniatures. Clicking on the picture opens a large window and (optionally a comment field). A combination of what you have done with eVis, but preferrably more integrated. Perhaps a custom provider is also needed? Magnus ___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer

No, you can use any of the available providers to open a vector layer from a plugin, then read features from the layer and place the canvas items accordingly.
