Re: [QGIS-Developer] Vote for Lat Lon Tools Default Coordinate Order - YX or XY
I appreciate everyone's ideas and opinions. I think that for now I will leave Lat Lon Tools as it currently operates, but I will look over the suggestions to see if I can make sure the options are as clear as possible. Thanks once again for your input.

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Processing: sort algorithm not working?
Hi Andreas, have a look at my last years issue on this https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/29794 maybe it's the same Cheers, Bernd On 19.11.20 14:16, Andreas Neumann wrote: Hi, I have a model where at the very end before adding it to the project I was trying to sort the result with an expression. But: the sorting doesn't work. In the help there is the cryptic hint at https://docs.qgis.org/3.10/de/docs/user_manual/processing_algs/qgis/vectorgeneral.html#qgisorderbyexpression that "Be careful, it might not work as expected with some providers, the order might not be kept every time." Does someone know more about it? Which providers specifically do not support sorting? Does this statement apply to the reading provider or the writing provider? In my case, I never got any correct sorting ...

I'm a little late on the table :-) As descision already cast: https://github.com/NationalSecurityAgency/qgis-latlontools-plugin/issues/53#issuecomment-731070055 and fine with it, just want to add: I'm not a geo-guy by original trade and working with scientists/911 peeps at the moment, who favour the math-way of exchanching coordinates (2 dimensional values): X,Y. If I were 'boss geo', I'd never use lonlat or latlon terms, only use (decimal!) degrees or x,y :-) (people tend to mix lat lon up all the time, they never do with x,y). In my use-case, the Lat Lon Tools plugin is used in a very pluriform, international environment where coordinates from all kind of crs's are to be mixed/converted (often one pair at a time...). Why would you use YX in one crs and XY in other crs's? It's just not very efficient to have that choice. Just like meters/feet, point/comma delimeters in numbers etc etc. This screams for conversion issues ... Ah, and while on it, let's all speak Esparanto (and keep the number of QGIS translation builds low) ;-) Korajn salutojn, Richard Duivenvoorde ___ QGIS-Developer mailing list QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
