Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

I see your point, but I was not asking it for be the default behavior. That might not work for all users, specially those with small screen, but for others with big high resolution screens, may look strange to have a bunch of tools stacked and tabbed, with still so much space in the screen to

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi, we already can put the dock panels as tabs in the same dock as the layer tree, this is convenient to me in general for the browser. Agreed with Andréa, we can't afford to use more space for the docks.. even for medium size screens. Régis 2017-05-02 16:46 GMT+02:00 Neumann, Andreas

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi Alexandre, hm - I don't think we can allow more docking space for additional panels taking more away from the Assuming you work on a small Netbook screen: if you have the layer panel on the left and the styling panel on the right, you have a few pixels left for the map itself. If you add

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Looking into the proposal, makes me wonder if it would be possible to add the Browser panel (that will need to be big enough for the dialogs) to the right of the Layers Panel (assuming the default). That would imply a new area to allow docking panels. Alexandre Neto

Hi, We just finished our discussion on the unified add layer dialog and we are optimistic that it will make its way into 3.0. You can find a short summary of the planned steps at the end of the doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aMX9jOfl10q8oETRzOHSHnRpHCc7UJ1dDnCCq3VyTAY/edit?usp=sharing

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi, Some of my colleagues will be in Essen for QGIS Developers meeting. They will bring this up, and try to get the opinion of other developers. I'm sure everyone there will be interested in contributing with ideas for it. So, let's wait for now. Thanks for your work. Stéphane Henriod

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi all I would be more than happy to help push this new feature forward but I am not really sure what is needed now? Alexandre, I think you mentioned that your company might be interested to implement this unique "Add layer" button. Does the Gdoc now contain sufficient information for you to

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi all Harrissou has quite intensively re-organised the doc, which is now, IMO, much clearer. Thanks for that! But lots of changes are in "suggestion mode". I'd like to accept all those changes to increase the clarity and readability. Any objection on this? Thanks and cheers Stéphane Le

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi Stéphane, I believe it's a great starting point, very complete (I would not remember/consider some types of data). We still need to fill the second page and discuss the possible UI/UX implementation. Then, we will need some developers (I'm not a developer) to consider the requests and filter

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi Alexandre this is indeed great! Is the gdoc as it is now helpful enough for you to design a possible implementation? Or, if not, what other inputs / comments would be necessary? Cheers Stéphane Le lundi 10 avril 2017, Alexandre Neto a écrit : > Hello all, > > At

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Just because I recently found it .. Mapwindow (which seem to have the same icon set as QGIS and GRASS) has introduced such a "Add Data" Layer right from the beginning. Maybe it is a good point to start (just because I see that there are still Database buttons too) http://www.mapwindow.org

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hello all, At Boundless we are planning to put some development time in this "unified add layer" button/feature. As others already did, our idea was to use the browser panel as a base for replacing most of the buttons and add any capabilities that are still missing. So, let's work together to

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

I took the liberty to do some changes to the doc (especially add a new table with more detailed features on the existing tools + comments). It's supposed to replace the table already drafted but I didn't go so far without a review. 2017-04-05 10:36 GMT+02:00 DelazJ : > Hi

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi Stéphane, actually there's no more UX team (list). UX mailing list has been shut down months ago because it used to refer to dev list for most of decisions/advices so UX matters are now discussed either in the dev mailing list (we maybe can keep this thread) or, I guess until QGIS3 release, in

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi all there have been a few additions in the Gdoc already (not sure from whom) but I don't know if this is already sufficient for developers to take this up? Also, I am not sure how to reach out to the UX team. Through a separate mailing list? Or is it sufficient to have it here

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi, Thanks Anita for this work. I wasn't aware of your tool. Any reason to not make it available in the Plugins repo? It might get more audience, unless I overestimate our repo... Btw: I like the title of the blog post. :-) So other than Anita's plugin, there's currently no ongoing work to unify

Re: [Qgis-developer] Are there plans to create a unique "Add layer" tool?

Hi all I must say that Anita's hack seems quite handy and straight forward from a user's perspective. Would it be heavy to "just" integrate into the Master QGIS? I would be happy to help with testing. More, I unfortunately cannot do :-) Cheers Stéphane Le lundi 3 avril 2017, Tim Sutton
