Hi!
I would like to run this vm on a paid for cloud service. How would that be 
done? For instance, as an Amazon AMI or the equivalent.

There's 2 ways I can think of implementing this. One would be a niave
search-and-replace for variable names in the filter before passing it
off to the layer's provider. But that's potentially quite fragile.

An alternative approach would be to have an optional switch which
changes the layer filter from provider-specific syntax to using the
standard QGIS expression engine, complete with access to variables and
the like. With compiled expressions these could still potentially be
handed off to the provider side to speed up the queries.

Be aware that this would not be possible in a vector layer filter.
Expressions at the vector layer level will only have access to global,
project and layer variables. Think about it this way - if the project
has multiple maps in various composers, which extent and scale would
be used when fetching features from the layer for something which
isn't specific to an individual map (Eg the attribute table).

Only expressions evaluated in the context of a specific map have
access to the map specific scale and extent variables (eg data defined
symbology, labeling parameters, etc).

Re: [Qgis-user] Question about city layer density

2016-04-03 Thread Joris Hintjens
HOLD IT!
From what I read, you misunderstood Szilard’s answer. You don’t need different 
layers per class of city magnitude. Within one layer, you ca ncreate scalable 
visibilty according to a property (number of inhabitants).

But why not use a simpler way: use an existing background layer (OSM or other) 
that hat scalable visibility already in the layer? I personaly like "OSM Stamen 
toner” for its slick black rendering

Re: [Qgis-user] Question about city layer density

2016-04-03 Thread Nicolas Cadieux
Hi, 
I don't have Qgis front on me but you can use expressions for scale 
rendering of labels. ($scale). I think we can also do that with 
conditional formats objects properties. You could set object to become 
transparent depending on the expression. The below link is for labels but 
the same should apply to object formating... (I am pretty sure this is not a 
figments of my Imagination.) This way, you could use only one 
layer.

Joe,

what you seem to need is "scale dependent visibility".

To achieve this, go to "layer properties", "general" tab, and enable "scale 
dependent visibility".

Set your scales as preferred. This will show or hide all your cities, depending 
on the zoom level, 

but you can make different layers with different classes of cities, and 
enable/disable their
visibility at different zoom levels.

Szilard

[Qgis-user] Question about city layer density

2016-04-03 Thread Joe Stepansky
I'm relatively new to QGIS, so forgive any naivete.

 

I'm working on a project displaying severe weather outlooks on a map of the
US. It's gone very well, but I have one issue. I'm using a layer which
displays city locations and labels on the map. When zooming in to a specific
state, all looks fine. But when I pull back to several states, the map can
look cluttered with city points and labels.

 

The labels don't run into each other, there are just so many of them when I
zoom out. Is there some way to get QGIS to automatically remove "random"
cities (I really don't care which ones) as the map is zoomed out, and
restore them as the map is zoomed in?

 

Right now I'm manually using a filter to remove "excess" cities, but I can't
seem to find a nice, automated solution.

 

Thanks for any help!
