Re: [Qgis-user] Shapefile structure viewer and editor plugin
BUT, I feel it is a quite dangerous plugin to release in a public repo because of the potential damages bad edits can do on a shapefile! I would thus be very grateful if the most intrepid amongst you could test it and give comments on its usefulness... I can't see any problem by contributing it in the QGIS repositories... maybe tagging it as experimental and adding a warning message when it starts :) cheers -- Giovanni -- ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

So be it! I've added it to the QGIS contributed repo and marked it as experimental.

I felt the same fear publishing Table Manager, but I've implemented backuping and fortunately never heard about data loss due to using the plugin :) ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
[Qgis-user] Shapefile structure viewer and editor plugin
Hello List, I've created a simple plugin that allows to view the structure of a shapefile (X-, Y-coords alongside its attributes) and while at it I've also added the capability to edit the geometry and attributes and save back to the shapefile. A corollary is that if you want to add a point by typing its coords you can do it with the plugin (as André aka ALT SHN has suggested). You can even create a new shapefile in QGIS and use the plugin to type in coords and attributes or paste them from the clipboard. Points, lines and polygons shapefiles can be manipulated. BUT, I feel it is a quite dangerous plugin to release in a public repo because of the potential damages bad edits can do on a shapefile! I would thus be very grateful if the most intrepid amongst you could test it and give comments on its usefulness... The plugin is available at the address below: http://www.bc-consult.com/free/bccshpv.html Cheers, Benoit ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
Re: [Qgis-user] Shapefile structure viewer and editor plugin
Hi Benoit! This is a great plugin! I tested it on one point shapefile (8003 objects) and all went fine! Although I understand your concern about making it public, I think it's extremely usefull (at least for me it is) and it would be a shame not to put it on a public repository... Besides it even has a fair documentation, so I think newbies would be ok. Anyway, great tool! Thanks!
