Hi, In general I like the new icon set, because the icons look slicker and clearer. But I just noticed this inconsistency between the Map Navigation toolbar and the print composer. The pan tool in the Map Navigation consists of four arrows into all directions. In the print composer it is one

I don't know much about the memory layer handling - but here are some thoughts: I think Jürgen's idea makes a lot of sense: keep in-memory spatialite database, and save/restore when the project is saved/opened. And the user can export the layer to a preferred format if he/she wishes. Perhaps

We are designing the raster save as in a way that could be re-used elsewhere, perhaps vector saving could follow the same route - although not much (nothing) can be shared between the vector and raster dialogs. Etienne On Thu, Jul 26, 2012 at 2:29 AM, Paolo Cavallini cavall...@faunalia.it wrote:

Hi, my opinion is somewhere between Larry's and Yve's.. GIS theme has two main drawbacks IMHO: 1. Global render of toolbars is a cold blue - gray, in opposite of all QGIS relate support, that are colorfull (sites, GUI). It looks very old school GIS to me.. My wife, who likes painting, and

2012-07-26 Thread Paolo Cavallini
Hi all. Now that there is much work on refactoring the raster classes, wouldn't it be the right time to implement a series of colour ramps to be applied, instead of having only the current ugly blue-red one, based on equal intervals? The 1-band plugin is a very good guidance for this. The current

I was thinking about that, we could leverage the existing colorramps for vectors. We should probably refactor QgsVectorColorRampV2 as QgsColorRamp, and if need be create 2 subclasses (vector, raster). We could probably use existing dialogs pretty easily also, and do the same. Unless there is a

Good points. I'm thinking perhaps the solution is to use Sqlite/spatialite (don't get me wrong - I like and use spatialite a lot). But perhaps use the python spatialite driver directly, rather than the QgsVectorFileWriter class as I am currently doing, as I cannot see any OGR options for
