Re: [Qgis-user] Meatdata
Hi 2008/2/20, Agustin Lobo [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Some questions on Metadata: 1. Is it posible to edit the metadata displayed in Properties/Metadata ? For example, after opening a multiple geotif file, I have in the metadata: Band 1 : Gray Band No 1 No Stats No stats collected yet Band 2 : Undefined Band No 2 No Stats No stats collected yet and so on for 6 bands. I wish to edit and set the correct values. Editing the metadata is not currently possible. 2. Can the metadata information be exported so that it can be consulted and edited using a metadata editor? We want to add our layers to a catalogue and we would save a lot of time if the information displayed by QGis could be exported to a file. Possibly this could be done with a little python I guess. Currently there is no export option though this would not be hard to add. 3. Could we have in the future a tool to search (in the disk or in a web server) all available layers for a given geographic region, see some brief info on each layer, perhaps a quicklook and then be able to select and add to the QGis display? I have a data cataloguing plugin in the works that scans your disk for GIS files, builds a catalog, lets you categorise files and then lets you add files to the project. It will be a month or so before its ready to use and probably wont do everything you want in its first version. I'll let you know when its ready for testing. Regards Tim Thanks!

Re: [Qgis-user] Could not add new column to PostGIS Table
Hi Could you explain exactly what steps you have carried out? Regards Tim 2008/2/7, Surachai Locharoen [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Dear list I could not add new column to the Table. I use QGIS to add column. It seem to be fine but there is no column in table. If I add new column by using pgadminIII, I could not set value to new column. The error message show that in valid sql update statement. I notice that QGIS retrieve column name with blank column name between old colums and new columns. So when it generate sql statement it use blank column name in statement. The value I want to set is shift in to invalid column. Does anybody found this problem? How to work around it? I have to finish my project soon. It 's very appreciate for you help.

Hi all As you have probably noticed we are embarking on a more aggressive release schedule in the run up to the 1.0 release of QGIS. Making a release takes a lot of time so I'm looking for some helpers! you dont have to know anything about programming. A little knowledge of html would be useful. I'm in particular looking for people to help publicising the releases as they come out. In particular: - updating the qgis wiki where relevant - updating qgis.org where relevant - posting a blog entry to qgis.org - posting news announcements to key sites - regional helpers to post to language specific sites in their own language If you are able to help in this regard please contact me.

Re: [Qgis-user] new python plugin does not show up
And heres an icon to match the 0.9.2 icon theme updates Regards Tim 2008/2/2, Richard Duivenvoorde [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [message resent with some changes, because message too big... ] Hi Tara, the good news: you (almost) succeeded. Here is your stuff back (I've upgraded it to version 0.11 :-) http://www.duif.net/qgis/new_layer.zip 1) don't put python plugins in the directory you mentioned: C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS_091\share\qgis\python\plugins\ You are right, that's where the plugin installer is (which is I would say still beta (aka not yet working the way it is supposed to yet). But put your files in a directory new_layer here: C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS_091\python\plugins\new_layer There (after some fixes...) it works!! 2) python is very picky with whitespaces! you will see error messages when you put your old plugin code in the right place ;-) I removed them, or changed them (see new zip) 3) remove the linenumbers in your newlayer.py 4) you're including the python library pscopg (needed for python to interact with Postgresql. Do you have that lib installed in your python installation? I did'nt, and got errormessages, so I changed the version to psycopg2 (a library I do have). You should use/have one of those installed. 5) your button did't show up in the buttonbar, but the plugin shows up in the pluginmanager! This is because the name you define in the resources.qrc should match the name you use for it in your code: /plugins/new_layer/new_layer_icon.png in the qrc file should match the name you use in your code: self.action = QAction(QIcon(:/plugins/new_layer/new_layer_icon.png), After fixing this, it's loading. So I would say, congrat with your first plugin! Read something about python's whitespaces here: http://www.python.org/doc/essays/styleguide.html here http://docs.python.org/ or http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html psycopg or psycopg2 can be downloaded here: http://www.initd.org/pub/software/psycopg/ If you need an even easier plugin to start with, start with this one here: http://blog.qgis.org/?q=node/104 Good luck Richard Duivenvoorde Your plugin more or less fixed, and some screendumps to prove your plugin is loaded (0.9.1 on WinXP), and the code cleaned up a little and 'loadable' (all in the zip) here: http://www.duif.net/qgis/new_layer.zip Richard Duivenvoorde wrote: Hi Tara, where did you put you plugin stuff? which files did you put there?

Re: [Qgis-user] python plugin on windows
Hi Tara Well done on getting your first plugin building! Feel free to create a new wiki page. You could also consider putting your experiences together as short tutorials on the http://blog.qgis.org. Your work will probably reach a wider audience there. Also in the future we (ok probably python gurus like Martin co) could probably provide some kind of integrated development environment embedded in QGIS so that you can avoid the command line all togethergive it some time as its still early days in the QGIS Python bindings development. Regards Tim 2008/2/1, Tara Athan [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Thanks all for your help. I was able to get it to work. I almost never use the command line on Windows, so I'm not up on the fine points. I suspect that many people who might be interested in developing a Python plugin could be in the same situation. Here is what I found to work Option 1. Use the StartRun window. The command has to specify full paths for everything, even if C:\Python25 is correctly listed in the PATH variable. The command I used was this: C:\Python25\pyrcc4 -o C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS\share\qgis\python\plugins\new_layer\resources.py C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS\share\qgis\python\plugins\new_layer\resources.qrc Quotes are necessary because of the spaces in the folder names. Option 2. Use the Command Prompt Window a. Open the Command Prompt by clicking StartRun and enter cmd.exe or click StartAll ProgramsAccessoriesCommand Prompt b. Navigate to the new_layer folder by entering cd C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS\share\qgis\python\plugins\new_layer or whatever is the correct path, which can be copied from the Address line in Windows Explorer when the folder is open. Right-click to paste. Quotes aren't needed. c. Enter pyrcc4 -o resources.py resources.qrc at the prompt Perhaps there is a place on the wiki to store this sort of stuff that is needed by novice Windows-based Python developers, but irrelevant to others? Tara Richard Duivenvoorde wrote: Hi Tara, don't know if I can make it more clear, but on Linux this command 'pyrcc4' is in you PATH when you installed PyQt. On windows, it's possible that these binaries are not in your path. With me they were found here: C:\program files\Python25\pyrcc4.exe after installing. So you either call it by using the full path to it, or you add the path to python binaries to your PATH environment variable (I would do that...). The bigger picture: # QtDesigner4 will give you an '.ui' file # This .ui file is compiled using pyuic4 to a python source file containing the gui python class definition # You'll need pyrcc4 for generating a python resource file (will hold your images/icons etc) # You can then define your own class (inheriting from the gui class file above AND QDialog and add event/signal handlers to it No need to build stuff from source.

Also when I go int o the print composer I lose the postgis layer and only the raster graphics layer is displayed.. Perhap the cause has something to do with all the qt versions.

Regards Tim 2008/1/23, Agustin Lobo [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Well, I'm thinking on post-1.0 tasks. A roadmap for the future should be established at some point. Saga also has a python console, I guess. The analytical tools,as you say, are very good. Regards, Agus Tim Sutton escribió: Hi Since it is written in C++ on some level we might be able to use their library. However sharing gui components looks impossible because from what I can see they are using WxWidgets. The web site states that they have separated application logic from the gui and placed it in its own library so depending on the data model we could theoretically use some of their (great looking) analytical tools. It would need a 'champion' to make this happen (for GRASS we had Radim Blazek) because all QGIS devs are just hobbiests with limitied 'hack time' and we are already somewhat overwhelmed with things that need to be done for a stable and polished 1.0 release this year.

[Qgis-user] QGIS 0.9.2rc1 String Freeze - Call for translators
Hi All (and especially translators) As of today please note that we are entering string freeze for the run up to the next release. If you are committing bug fixes please avoid changing any strings. Translation .ts files have been updated in SVN so please update your local svn checkouts. The period for translations will close January 27 2008 (i.e. about one week from now) and then we will be branching for release. Any translations submitted to us after that time will only be included in the next release, so please submit what you have by then even if it is not complete. There was some discussion on the IRC channel today about the naming of this release. I would like to proceed with the release as planned but there are a great deal of new features incorporated from branches in this release which inevitably means new bugs. So not wanting to deviate from our release schedule, but at the same time wanting to indicate the fact that there are a number of unresolved issues, we will be going about the normal release process, but releasing as QGIS 0.9.2rc1 (rc signifying release candidate). It is our hope that by building packages and making a rc release we can give early adopters ready to use binaries to commence more detailed testing and bug reporting. We will follow up 0.9.2rc1 with a bug triage release focusing on stabilising new features and improving render performance. As always you can track the release plans via the checklist at: http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/ReleaseChecklist0.9.2 (I will update this page to indicate the rc1 status soon) If you have any questions about the translation process, please see the following page which I have recently updated with instructions on how to generate a .ts file for a new locale. http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/TranslatorsCorner Many thanks to all the translators out there for the great work you do!

Re: [Qgis-user] bug : ECW raster not display correctly
Hi 2008/1/17, Agustin Lobo [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Considering most of the raster features have been merged for 0.9.2, perhaps the best is filing bug reports using a beta release of 0.9.2 (once it is released, I understand developers are very busy) Most users (the ones able to test and file bug reports) don't even know what replicate against svn trunk is.

Re: [Qgis-user] gps problem
Hi QGIS doesnt have language bindings for java so I guess you are calling qgis as a system process? The screenshot command line option is using the same (gui based) application binary as QGIS desktop - hence the possibility for the visual side effects. For a more robust solution I would suggest making a simple libqgis_core based command line app to load your maps and create an image output. There are a number of examples for python and c++ available, and the tests/src/core unit tests have additional routines that can be adopted as the basis for such a simple command line app. Regards Tim 2008/1/16, Tolga Tanriverdi [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'm using java for my project -Original Message- From: Tim Sutton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 Ocak 2008 Çarşamba 11:29 To: Tolga Tanriverdi Cc: qgis-user@lists.qgis.org Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] gps problem Hi 2008/1/15, Tolga Tanriverdi [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi I'm new to whole qgis thing and I'm trying to develop a gis application with using qgis but I want to use qgis as a command line tool Which language are you developing with - python or c++?

Re: [Qgis-user] python plugin action vs mode tool
Hi We have the same idea already implemented for C++ programmers for some time - so maybe Martin could extend the plugin build to ask which language you want your plugin to be in and then build from a python plugin template when applicable. Qt automatically changes the brightness of buttons based on whether they are enabled or not, so I guess you need to call setEnabled on your button based on context. Regards Tim 2008/1/14, Richard Duivenvoorde [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi List, I'm currently working on a python plugin which is actually a click-tool, comparable to the I-tool from the attributes-view. That is: when you click the plugin button, you click in the map and something happens, you are supposed to be in that 'mode'/'state' untill you choose to use another tool (like zoomin, select etc). This opposed to (plugin)-tools which work via their own 'config'-screen: you activate the plugin, a config screen pops up, and after completing the configuration you're still in the old (eg zoom) mode. Questions: - is there a difference between these two 'modes', in term of names (tools vs wizard or so)? How do you call these? - I was not able to 'enable' my plugin button, aka: make it a little darker so you know that you're still in the xyz-mode. Can somebody point me to such an example, or are plugins not supposed to work like this? Idea: Is it an idea for one of the (python)-guru's to make two plugin annotated stubbs and add it to the pluginrepository, which can be used by 'normal' people to implement their functionality. I'm thinking of two plugins: one for this 'wizard'-like plugins and one for this 'state'-like plugin. This plugins do nothing more then enable certain (click) events in the map and do a print out (though these print out lines can't be seen in windows?). Actually in line with this wiki article: http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/DevelopingPluginsWithPython, but adding some more events, and maybe some simple qt dialogs. A user which knows a few words of python can then copy the plugin stubb, and add some simple code for example in the 'mapClick'handler, without knowing to much about the Qt-event handling system. If needed this can be learned later. Essentials: - the stubbs should contain ready made parts for thinks like: showing the essential events: mouseClicks in the map etc - there should be a difference between a (more advanced) wizard like plugin and a simple 'commandline'-plugin.

Hi Richard, I'm using Qgis in order to realise a geological map: images will be not distribuited via mapserver. So I actually have more than 200 layers. To create a python plugin for that could be very interesting. But I don't know python language Anyway, I think that the possibility to have a Qgis plugin doing this could be fundamental for those people working with a very large number of raster data (this is the case of people like me working on planetary geology) Thank you very much Andrea 2008/1/11, Richard Duivenvoorde [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Andrea, how did you load these rasters? Every raster in a layer (so you have actually 200 layers)? Or did you generate a tileindex file using gdaltindex and are you serving the rasterimages using mapserver? If the first: it's fun to write a simple python plugin for that, if needed I can give you some help (thinking about: get mouseXY, walk through all layers and check if you are within the bbox of current layer, spit the layername or some other attribute name to std-out (or more fancy: show a dialog).) If the second: as Tim told you: add the indexfile as layer. You can also use that indexfile to serve the rasters via Mapserver then. Building the indexfile and just loading that in Qgis is probably the fastest way.

Hi This functionality will be available when the raster transparency branch is merged.

I looked at the layer properties, but couldn't find any way to set black as off-site so I could see the rotated image over an existing map. Is it possible to classify an off-site value for raster layers.

Re: [Qgis-user] shape file
Hi Yes I think my patch will check both before and after. Don't worry about your English I can understand you fine :-) Regards Tim 2007/12/7, alexey [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Tim, now I know what problem was - it's absence of attributes of column. Then project has created somebody and did't fill up key - field. Qgis crashed because one field of one of objects was empty. I think that will be more better create a check of type field before creating a shape-file. P.S. sorry for my bad english, i hope you will understand me). Hi Looking at the code, only int, string and double types are currently supported. What data types are in your grass layer attributes table? Certainly we should not assert there but rather give some kind of feedback. Currently the code for QGIS 0.9.1 is in string freeze so I cant do much about it right now. However I have made a patch to at least just give an error message rather than assert (which causes the app to terminate). I have created a bug for this here: https://svn.qgis.org/trac/ticket/854 Which includes a patch which at least prevents the app terminating. If you supply me with more info regarding the datatypes in your attribute table I will try to include support for additional dataypes in the above patch. As I recall shapefile format supports only int, double and string so any other attribute types will need to be merged into one of those types. I will apply the patch post 0.9.1 release. Regards Tim 2007/12/5, alexey [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi I have a problem with generating shape file in qgis.

Hi 1) Grass doesnt know anything about .qgs files 2) To import a dataset into GRASS you need do : - create a grass mapset - open the mapset - open the grass tools dialog - use the provided tools to move your data from gdal or ogr into grass 3) Use file-save as image to snap a picture of your map for export to GIMP Have fun!

Hi I believe these are GRASS issues and best directed to the GRASS mailing list. Best regards Tim 2007/11/28, alexey [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi, I have a problem with QGIS. Can QGIS be used in multiuser mode? I need several people to work with one layer (GRASS layer) simultaneously. I noticed that only user with owner right can edit layer. When layer is opened from other workplace (terminal) even owner can't open this layer. System: terminal server on SUSE 10.3 with QGIS workstation windows of finstation promlem in detail: folder has user - owner and group - owner. this folder contains workproject. The layer can be edited only by owner. But users included in owner group can't edit layer. if someone faced this problem, please answer and suggest something. therefore thanks. If someone understands russian: У меня проблема с использованием qgis. Возможно ли использовать qgis в многопользовательском режиме? Задача заключается в том, чтобы одновременно несколько человек могли редактировать один и тот же слой (GRASS слой) в qgis. Проблема в том, что только пользователь, имеющий права владельца может редактировать данный слой, иначе при открытии с другого рабочего места этот слой просто недоступен. Система организована следующим образом: терминальный сервер на SUSE 10.3 с qgis и рабочие станции на windows, или finstation. У папки есть непосредственно пользователь - владелец и группа - владелец, в этой папке хранится проект. Открывать проект может кто угодно, редактировать - только владелец (пользователь), другие пользователи, подключающиеся через терминал и включенные в группу владельцев почему-то не имеют права редактировать слой. Если проект уже открыт пользователем - владельцем, то при включении qgis с терминала от имени пользователя - владельца слой недоступен (невозможно открыть), то есть он не виден вообще. Если кто-то уже сталкивался с такой проблей, прошу ответить, есть необходимость работать над проектом нескольким людям одновременно, а это пока что не удается. alexey mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.qgis.org http://lists.qgis.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user -- Tim Sutton QGIS Project Steering Committee Member - Release Manager Visit http://qgis.org for a great open source GIS openModeller Desktop Developer Visit http://openModeller.sf.net for a great open source ecological niche modelling tool Home Page: http://tim.linfiniti.com Skype: timlinux Irc: timlinux on #qgis at freenode.net ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.qgis.org http://lists.qgis.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

I have my site data stored in a postgis database and can connect to it. My problem lies in the drawing order of the classified attribute field. For me it is crucial to have my attribute values (epoches in my case) to be drawn in the correct order - that is from latest time period to most recent. But qgis draws the attribute values always in alphabetical order from a to z. I tried to use a order by clause in the sql query builder, but this doesn't seem to work. I tried also to reorganize the epoch classes in the legend composer, but this doesn't work also. So, is there a way to achieve this? I use qgis 0.9.0 on ubuntu 7.04 installed by apt-get.

Hi Martin Thanks I removed libtool from linux deps. By more libraries for gdal you mean libhdf4g-run and libhdf?

Re: [Qgis-user] [Qgis-developer] eliminations of seams between raster tiles?
Hi Marco I'm in agreement for getting out a 0.9.1 release as soon as possible. However Tisham who does the windows builds is away till the end of November so I think its not possible to release before early Dec as I dont yet have the complete win compilation environment set up. I agree that branches shouldnt be merged in till post 0.9.1. I will try over the next few weeks to get test builds made for all platforms of the Raster and Editing branches (but without all the extra bits that Tisham does on win so no python, no grass support). We can post thos for Agostin and others who would like to participate early on in the quality assurance process before these branches are merged. Regards Tim 2007/11/3, Marco Hugentobler [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi all, I'm in favour of a bugfix release 0.9.1 that is very soon and contains only small changes. In my opinion, the branches should be tested and merged after that as they contain bigger changes that habe higher risk of side effects. Tim, what's your opinion on this as release manager? If the functionality in raster transparency branch is very important for some tasks, why not checkout the code in the branch, compile qgis and work with it?

Re: [Qgis-user] [Qgis-developer] WMS Rendering Problems
Hi We will be making test packages for the transparency branch (which will contain everything from trunk merged in too). We will put these out for public comment and bug testing. Once we are happy that the raster transparency branch is stable, works as expected and does not cause any other problems, we will begin the process of getting it merged into trunk. We will announce to the list when these packages are available and open a special tag in trh bug tracker that bugs can be filed against. If you are interested in parrticipating in the process please contact Peter Ersts who is our raster maintainer. Any contributions in the form of quality control, testing, useabilty, coding if you know how etc would be greatly appreciated. We are in the process of stabilising QGIS for a 1.0 release which means we are being much more conservative about letting new features into trunk so that we can really focus on getting all those open bugs removed. Many thanks for you input! Regards Tim 2007/11/2, Agustin Lobo [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Tim, could the new 0.9.1 include the transparency raster branch? It seems that Peter Ersts has these tools pretty advanced. It's actually very difficult to use QGis for real work with imagery without having these tools available. Thank you all for your work!

[Qgis-user] QGIS 0.9.0 bugfix delay
Hi All Some of you may have noticed that I tagged 0.9.0 two nights ago. I have not yet made any announcements regarding 0.9.0 release. Because of the number of bug reports coming in and since there seem to be so many issues with the code base as it stands, I would like to suggest retagging 0.9 as 0.9preview2 and delay the release for another 2 weeks to allow for more bug fixing. Could I ask everyone who has pending stability patches to please apply them and motivate those who may have been itching to do some bug fixing to give it a go! We really need everyones help if we are to produce a stable product! We would also like to remind you that we have a small amount of funds donated by our user community available to support bug fixing, so if you are a student or otherwise looking to make a bit of spare cash, this is a great opportunity to support the QGIS project and at the same time get a little less poor!

Now is the time we call on your help to produce translations, update documentation etc. You dont need to be a programmer to be of assistance - all you need to do is be willing to donate some time and have a computer. Note that automake and qmake build systems are completely removed and using cmake is the only way to build QGIS 0.9.0 preview 1. Please see the INSTALL document in the source tree for detailed notes for your platform. http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/BuildingFromSource Also contains updated build notes for all platforms. Many thanks for all who are pitching in to make this release happen.

/urs/local/qgis08 with the same directory structure, it was not?
There was some discussion half a year ago on how this should be done.
The consensus (then) was that no special path should be compiled into
the binary, but the use LD_LIBRARY_PATH et. al. is preferred.

Hi William Thanks for this! I have added your hints to the install notes in INSTALL.t2t and will commit shortly. You are getting the same mileage out of your macbook as me (2 for the price of 1 :-). When mine died they replaced the motherboard, keyboard, hard drive and who knows what else.

I have a binary on my site now that you can link to the download page (linking the site page, not the dmg, would be best, so people can see and easily get to the framework and GRASS download requirements). Summary of the package: Qgis 0.8.1, requires my frameworks, also GRASS 6.3 app for GRASS support, and Python 2.5 for MS Export, all other needed libraries bundled in the app, includes gpsbabel universal binary. Some notes: - One small problem with the msexport linking - it links libqgis_core from the source dir, not from the relative @executable_path/. - for the build instructions, after a little experimentation with the interactive cmake mode, I figured out how to easily get the new GRASS.app builds with the version numbers in the name (ie GRASS-6.3.app): cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Applications -D GRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/ Applications/GRASS-6.3.app/Contents/Resources/include -D GRASS_PREFIX=/Applications/GRASS-6.3.app/Contents/Resources .. - another fine tuning for the build instructions: I found that the default build type isn't quite a release build.

Re: [Qgis-user] problem with QGIS using WMS service
Hi Marco Thanks for the feedback. Actually we normally ask the person who *finds* the error to report it :-) The reason for this is simple - if we need more information on how to replicate the bug, sample data, other info etc, we need to be able to get this info from the person who originally reported it. Please feel free to file your bug using the bug tracker system at the following URL: https://svn.qgis.org/trac Mark the bug as Version 0.8.1 Milestone 0.8.1. Note that since we are close to releasing 0.8.1 we may not have time to fix the issue prior to the release and may defer fixing it until 0.8.2. Regards Tim 2007/3/2, Marco Lechner [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi list, I'm having a few problems with my WMS service using QGIS as client. May be anyone has a few hints or ideas: Using QGIS 0.8.0 on opensuse: - a polygon layer doesn't show with transparency - even though it is implemented in the WMS and it works with other clients, the transparency as well is not adjustable using the properties menu (well i can change it to 50% but it dioesn't change the view) - the transparency works very nice, if I use the WMS-feeding postgis-service directly. [projection on runtime is activated] Using QGIS0.8.1preview2 (pretty fresh installation with complete uninstall of 0.8.1p1) on WinXP: - while zooming in a WMS-raster or vektor layer an error message appears: msWMSLoadGetMapParams(): WMS server error.

Re: [Qgis-user] Silent installation
Hi Leonardo Can you file these issues as bugs at http://svn.qgis.org/trac ? Its difficult to keep track of bugs via email. File them against Version 0.8.0, Milestone 0.8.1 which is where all the bugs for this release are grouped. Many thanks for your feedback! Regards Tim 2007/2/26, Leonardo Lami [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Tim, I'm testing the new QGIS and I see a good work, it seems there are only two problems: - when you use the GRASS tools and you see the list of the GRASS layers you can't see the icons of the management of the layers (show layer, copy, rename) - when you want edit a GRASS vector and you click on the edit icon an output message say: No maps opened in mMaps, probably problem in runtime linking, static variables are not shared by provider and plugin. I will make some test again, good work! Leonardo Tim Sutton ha scritto: Hi all OK so the latest preview build at: http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/testbuilds/qgis_setup0.8.1preview1.exe supports silent installation now. Run from the command line like this qgis_setup0.8.1.exe /S There are a few things to note: - after running the above command the installler will fork to the background and immediately return you to the prompt. - the installer uses all default options that means that it will try to go onto the internet and retrieve the two sample datasets of around 20mb each. - if you wish to customise the datasets etc that are installed, you can quite easily modify the nsis installer - its in svn 0.8 branch under win_build. The procedure for creating your custom installer is (more or less) - Install qgis 0.8.1 preview (and later final release) into c:\Program Files\qgis0.8.1 - Install nulsoft NSIS installer application - Check out the win_build dir from qgis 0.8 branch: https://svn.qgis.org/repos/qgis/branches/Release-0_8_0/win_build - Follow the notes pertaining to fixing auto unzip issues in the source in README.txt - edit qgis.nsi and add remove sample data etc. - Run nsis on the nsi file - Feel good and be happy :-) Hope that helps Regards Tim 2007/2/21, Stephan Holl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Pleyer, Walter [EMAIL PROTECTED], [20070221 - 08:12:52] Assuming you are on windows though. :-) How did you know? ;-) I am afraid there is currently no such option inside the windows installer, but I am not entirely sure. I'd be interested in this too so if someone knows another Gary Sherman already mailed me, telling me the same as you. This option is currently not available. I'm pretty sure though, this would help acceptance by institutional users like Universities or in our case ministries (yes, Qgis has a very good chance to go official in Austria). So why not preparing a nsis-installer where your settings (path, languag, etc.) are hardcoded and it only needs to be executed by an administrator on the dedicated computer? Seems doable though.

[Qgis-user] Preview of QGIS 0.8.1 for windows available
Dear users As you may be aware we are working on getting QGIS 0.8.1 bug fix release out the door. I have put up a preview build for windows at: http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/testbuilds/qgis_setup0.8.1preview1.exe This file will be removed again at the time of final release so please do not make any permanent links to it. QGIS 0.8.1 will be the first of probably several bugfix releases up until the time that QGIS 0.9 is released. I would like to ask that your feedback about problems you encounter is done only via the bug tracker since it is difficult to keep track of issues when they are posted to the mailing list in an ad hoc manner. More specifically if you encounter any new bugs please file them against Version 0.8.1, Milestone 0.8.2 since we wont be making any new changes to the 0.8.1 codebase (barring major show stopper issues). The primary reason for making this preview available is to get the installer tested and make sure everything is generally working out the box. There are still two issues that I will try to address before the final release of the windows installer: - support for silent installs - placing shortcuts into all user accounts If you were generally able to install and use the preview release without issue, that feedback will be most welcome on this list. Many thanks for your ongoing support.

[Qgis-user] Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS workshop(s) at FOSS4g2007
Hi It seems to me that if we could coordinate our efforts we could try to get the following presentations together: Presentations: - QGIS 'nuts bolts' - all about the Quantum GIS open source desktop GIS application project. - Using QGIS libs in your application Workshops: - plugin writers workshop ( we should get feedback from Marco on whether there was a lot of demand on this ) - QGIS and GRASS - Programming QGIS with python Regards Tim 2007/2/9, Gary Sherman [EMAIL PROTECTED]: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Greetings, The FOSS4G2007 conference is scheduled for September 24-27, 2007 in Victoria, Canada. I sent out information on the call for workshops earlier in the week. The web page can be found at: http:// www.foss4g2007.org/workshops.html It would be good if several of you (developers/users) submitted a proposal. I think workshops that illustrate the application of QGIS in real-world situations would be good, however they would have to have a broad enough scope to appeal to a wide audience. Developer focused workshops are also of value. In particular, something along the lines of plugin development, application development using QGIS libraries, and plugin/application development using Python would be of interest. I'm sure you have more and better ideas. Read the call for workshops to see the focus areas the organizers are interested in for this years event. I have a favor to ask. If you are planning to submit a workshop proposal, please email me with a few details. I would like to not only be aware of what is being proposed, but also be aware of any overlap and possibility for collaboration. If you want to share your plan with the list, feel free to do so, otherwise just email me directly. I have set up a wiki page that can be used to document conference plans as they evolve: http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/FOSS4G2007_Conference If you need write access to the wiki, create an account and then email me or tim at linfiniti.com. Finally, we are hoping to be able to offer a subsidy for folks presenting a workshop or paper at the conference. This would apply to those that lack any corporate/academic funding. The amount of subsidy will be decided on a case by case basis and will offset some of your costs, not cover them all.

Re: [Qgis-user] Fwd: New and inexperienced--how to make NASA SRTM work properly?
Hi You could also try OpenEV for 3d visualisation Regards Tim 2007/2/10, Amanda Wintcher [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Brent Wood wrote: QGIS (AFAIK) does not support 3D displays of terrain models. It can display vector (point/line/polygon) and georeferenced raster (terrain models, imagery) in 2D (from above) only- basically a plan view. Whoops! I guess I missed that very simple piece of information! Sorry about that. To use SRTM data with QGIS, I believe you'll need to generate georeferenced images from the SRTM terrain model, or download such imagery. GRASS GMT can generate such imagery from the SRTM model. QGIS does not have the analytical capabilities to do this (yet). As said elsewhere on the list, I don't really need to be able to see the data as 3D (except that it will impress my advisors), and I don't plan to try and print anything other than flat images in the final product. I presume that if I have the information in the file, generated using one of the methods above, that I can still use the elevation data in calculations of things like visibility or slope via qGIS? Or am I really better off using GRASS by itself? Thank you all very much for your help and patience.

Re: [Qgis-user] OSGeo Membership for QGIS
Hi Jack Radim has mentioned some possible 'downsides' in the preliminary discussions we had on the PSC mailing list before Gary sent the initial email in this thread out for wider comment. I think I can summarise by saying that Radims main concern was that the OSGEO becomes some kind of defacto portal for people trying to find free and open source GIS related software, essentially precluding non member projects for similar consideration. Of course this can be seen as an advantage for the OSGEO members projects, but since open source developers have a libertarian approach to life I cant help but agree with Radim a little. Not enough for me to *not* want to join PSC though because I think that lifting up some open source projects into the public eye will inevitably bring other initially less visible projects into focus too. In fact for me the biggest 'con' I can think of is the time and effort we will need to invest to oversee the incubation process and any additional admin overhead being an OSGEO member may introduce. Since QGIS is a 100% volunteer effort at the moment, any time spent on admin generally reduces otherwise productive developer time. The counter argument to this is of course is that if OSGEO lives up to our expectations it should reduce admin overhead that we currently invest in managing our project servers, removing spammer posts to the forums etc etc Other than that I really dont see any great cons in the road ahead - though it would be interesting to get a retrospective opinion on the matter from some projects that have already gone through the process... Best regards Tim On 1/28/07, Jack Varga [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Gary, Tim, et al; On the surface it seems hard to find a reason not to support a move to OSGeo. Gary lists many Pros for joining, but no Cons. In my attempt to remain objective, it would help to hear what some of the Cons might be (for both users and developers)? The fact that QGis relies heavily on the advanced analytical capabilities inherent in Grass and that Grass is already a (along with GDAl, IMHO the two most critical) member(s) of OSGeo, it does seem a logical course of action. That alone is without consideration for many of the additional benefits Tim describes.

[Qgis-user] Re: [Qgis-developer] OSGeo Membership for QGIS
Hi I have been pondering this since OSGEO started, and am fairly convinced its the right way to go. In addition to raising the profile of QGIS, we will benifit by being able to make use of the OSGEO hosting offerings which will hopefully reduce the rather large amount of time we currently devote to project admin related activities. My feeling is that initially we should not make use of and financial infrastructure from OSGEO and just do things one step at a time: 1) get ourselves incubated (can anyone say cheep! ?) 2) start migrating our web site / svn etc to osgeo servers where it makes sense to do so 3) start thinking about if / how / when we want to make use of the financial related parts of the OSGEO offering.

Re: [Qgis-user] Re: Titan-Ubuntu repositories
Hi Jack No we dont have an official repository (which is also my preferred manner of install :-( ).

Re: [Qgis-user] Mac OSX Display problem
Hi Nick I've never encountered this but I suspect you are right and the window is being restored to the no longer existing position when you reopen the application. So you could delete or edit the qgis settings file which off the top of my head is under /Users/Library/ in the applications settings dir (cant rememebr the exact directory name). Make sure to do it while QGIS is closed. The next time you reopen QGIS, it should default to opening on the primary screen. Feel free to file a bug at https://svn.qgis.org/trac and perhaps Tom can think of a more elegant solution. I also vaguely recall there was an option somewhere in the mac display settings to bring all windows onto the current position but I could be wrong Regards Tim On 1/13/07, Nick Black [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, This could be a more OSX related issue than a QGIS one... I've been using QGIS 0.8.0 Mac OSX and Ubuntu releases since they were released, mainly for viewing shapefile and TAB files. Yesterday I tried to load up QGIS on my Mac Book. It loads up until it gets to the splash screen - after that the icon appears in the doc and on the menu bar at the top of the desktop. I can use the menu, but cant actually see the QGIS window. If I use expose (the OSX feature that shows you all the open windows you have) - I can see QGIS with whatever data I have loaded, but when I click on it to bring it to the front, it slides back off to to the left of my screen. I have tried: 1) Turning off virtual desktops 2) Checking system preferences to see if OSX thinks there is another monitor attached 3) Reinstalling the QGIS dmg 4) Greping Library for qgis to try and find and remove any config files None of these steps have helped. I am guessing that the problem has been caused by me using QGIS with a second monitor attached to my MacBook. Is this feasible? Has anyone else had these problems?

Re: [Qgis-user] ECW Licence
Hi In my mind (from the discussions we have had on this list) the issue is still not resolved. I think there is nothing to stop someone creating an unofficial / independent gdal + ecw installer if they are not so scrupulous / concerned about the licensing and make it so it overwrites the gdal in the official qgis installer. Maybe even this is considered bad Im not sure, but at the very least QGIS project wont be involved in any wrongdoing if the legality is questionable. But I think until its 100% confirmed that ECW license is compatibe with QGIS GDAL we should err on the side of caution when it comes to shipping ecw out of the box with QGIS.

It doesn't seems very simple… The ability of QGis (windows binaries) to read ECW is also a fundamental point for us if we want to adopt QGIS.

Re: [Qgis-user] compare GIS
Hi Willem QGIS can do all these things as Martin has explained above. You can also see the qgis blog where I have posted various short tutorials on embedding QGIS canvas controls into your vertical application. One more thing that you should keep in mind when doing your evaluations is that QGIS is released under the GPL and uses the GPL version of Qt4 so you would be expected to to develop your software under the same license.

I would like to do a small comparison between the various GIS programs so that we can make a motivated decision. The application must enable us to develop the following: Hi Willem, when developping applications with QGIS, there are basically two options: - create a plugin for QGIS - create an application based on QGIS libraries - you can start a new application and use only some functionality from QGIS - e.g. postgis data provider, map renderer or map canvas etc. Applications have to be written with C++ and Qt as QGIS is based on them. In 0.9 release you will have also possibility to use Python instead of C++. - create functionality where a user can place symbols, lines or polygons in the map by drawing in the map. Next, a dialogbox must appear where he can enter some attribute information. The coordinates and the entered attribute data must be stored in a spatial database (postgis). Yes, you can use map canvas API for this or just directly use digitizing functionality of QGIS. Postgis backend is well supported. - One can have multiple views (windows) that are linked together; so when you pan in one view, the other views will pan along automatically. (there are different layers in each view) This could be done in case you would develop a new application - there you could create multiple map canvases and connect them together. - Create short-cut keys for various functions; for example to make layers visible / invisible and to zoom in to a certain scale. Should be easy - actions in Qt allow settings shortcuts. - It must be fast with raster and vector data Well, this is for your own consideration whether it's fast enough. - Make use of global variables that we can use in the entire application Why not... - Create buttons, menu bars, etc that execute our developed scripts A piece of cake :) Check out developer's corner on QGIS wiki, you'll find some tutorials on how to develop plugins and/or custom applcations with QGIS: http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/DevelopersCorner Regards, Martin ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.qgis.org http://lists.qgis.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user -- -- Tim Sutton Visit http://qgis.org for a great Open Source GIS Home Page: http://linfiniti.com Skype: timlinux MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: timlinux Irc: timlinux on #qgis at freenode.net ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.qgis.org http://lists.qgis.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
