Re: [Qgis-user] Announcing ProfileFromLine plugin

[Borys Jurgiel]

 The reason for this is the version of GEOS and Shapely libs that are
 packaged by the osgeo4w folks are a bit older than what the plugin
 requires. I am sorry for this inconvenience. I'll open a ticket at the
 osgeo4w trac to ask for packaging of newer libs. If you feel that you
 absolutely must have this feature, try using GRASS or SAGA GIS as an
 alternative.

I believe many users use Shapely 1.0.x still, so I'd suggest to handle this 
error in more friendly manner, like:

try:
 from shapely.geos import geos_capi_version
except:
 geos_capi_version = (-1,-1,-1)

and then include it to the geosCAPIVersion tests

Thanks for the very useful plugin, anyway! It's what people often request from 
the ProfileTool (and I still hadn't any time to implement).

[Qgis-user] Announcing ChartMaker plugin

[Ricardo Filipe Soares Garcia da]

Hi list

I have uploaded a new plugin called 'ChartMaker'.

It will create plots with vector attribute values. The current version
is still very crude, but it is already functional, however, I have
marked it as 'experimental', so keep in mind that it may not work on
your system. I have been developing it on kubuntu 10.04 and haven't
had a chance to test it under other platforms.
In time I hope to improve on it and remove the 'experimental' tag

The user can select up to 3 series to plot, each series being composed
by an xx attribute and a yy attribute. Currently there are no
customization options for the chart, but I hope to work on that in
future versions. It is already possible to navigate the chart and save
it in a vectorial format.

The way I am using it myself is in conjunction with the
ProfileFromLine plugin, creating some profiles along a line that
samples multiple rasters and then visualize the results in a chart. I
thought it might be useful for others ;)

This plugin depends on the matplotlib python package.

If you'd be willing to test it out please leave me a message through
this mailing list with your remarks. Thank you
