Re: [Qgis-user] Trouble trying to produce large graphic jpg from stand alone QGIS 2.8.1-Composer on Windows 7-32 bit
Hi Tom, I remember there used to be a problem with large prints in Win32, see e.g. [1] Bernhard [1] http://hub.qgis.org/issues/11145 Am 18.03.2015 22:22, schrieb Tom Lennon: The graphic is 656 MB (16200 x 13500 @ 300 dots per inch) and would measure 1372 x 1143 mm. It is a wall map. Composer warns it may cause memory overflow and when I proceed it says to either change paper size or resolution and no file is generated. I have checked available memory and it is 1.82 GB before attempting the export. Windows 7-32 is limited to 3.5 GB physical RAM so I tried increasing virtual RAM to 12 GB. That had no effect. Also tried to output as PDF, which gave no warnings and produced an empty file. Is there some way to instruct QGIS to use the virtual RAM? Or is there a way to have the output file made in bands like Post Script does?

Re: [Qgis-user] Panasonic Toughbook FZ-G1 and QGIS
I'll agree that the OS is more likely, but please don't dismiss this completely out of hand. Although my case is on Linux, I've recently had a case where QGIS 1.7-2.6 worked fine with my GPS, but come 2.8 it won't communicate. I can definitely say that the GPS *is* communicating with the OS, and the other apps I normally use with it are working fine. My experience with windows is that sometimes, but not always, it can try to assign different comm port numbers to the same device if it is plugged into different physical ports between uses. That might help. -ramon. On 19 Mar 2015, at 0:39, Dietrich Heintz dhei...@gmx.net wrote: Dear all, is it sure, that the GPS in QGIS fails. It can be that the GPS on the OS fails as well.

Hi, You can look at some basic statistics in the layers properties by right clicking on the layers.nbsp; Those are sometimes wrong.nbsp; Best to use the gdal raster statistics in the processing toolbox plugins or the grass module in the same toolbox. The gdal module in the raster\ menu can sometimes give wrong results if the .XML file has been created. If you delete it, if will give you good results.nbsp; The XML file with the statistics is created if you open and close a layer for the first time.nbsp; Look in same directory as your raster to find and delete the file.nbsp; Depends on the version Qgis.nbsp;nbsp; Bug may have been fixed.

Hi Saber Thanks for that - sorted. What was confusing me was how to generate the INI file in the first place. Starting QGIS from the command line with the - - configpath option set to C:\temp\qgis2 sorted that.

Re: [Qgis-user] DB Manager in QGIS 2.8
Hello David, Can I assume that you use fires.id as unique integer value column in DBManager to load the layer? Because with your query you will likely get repeated values for fires.id. That is, each fires feature will appear as many times as lakes within 1000 meters. If that's what you want, you can use row_number() function to create a fictional id for your layer. Something like this: WITH my_query as ( SELECT fires.id, fires.inci_no, fires.descript, fires.geom FROM lab.mpls_fires_2014 fires INNER JOIN lab.mpls_lakes lakes ON ST_DWITHIN(fires.geom, lakes.geom, 1000) ) SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER() as id, my_query.* FROM my_query; But, if I understand your problem, you want to show all fires that occurred within 1000 m of a lake. In that case, each fire should only appear once. You can use DISTINCT for that: SELECT *DISTINCT* fires.id, fires.inci_no, fires.descript, fires.geom FROM lab.mpls_fires_2014 fires INNER JOIN lab.mpls_lakes lakes ON ST_DWITHIN(fires.geom, lakes.geom, 1000) Best regards, Alexandre Neto Em 19/03/2015 03:25, David Fawcett david.fawc...@gmail.com escreveu: Thanks for the response Alexandre.

Re: [Qgis-user] DB Manager in QGIS 2.8
Alexandre, Thank you very much. Of course, it was operator error! I was writing a quick query for a demo and not to solve a real problem, so I hadn't really thought through the issue with unique results. Adding DISTINCT made it work as expected. A great enhancement to DB Manager would be some sort of error reporting, even if it was minimal. Like: - db error, The database reported an error with your query. - QGIS error, There is something about your result set that prevents QGIS from adding it to the map. Even better would be an error about the selected id column not containing unique values. With no error message reported, I just assumed that the plugin might not be completely compatible with the new 2.8 release. (when really it was my error...) Thanks again. The QGIS integration with PostGIS is really valuable and powerful. David.
