[QGIS-Developer] Issues in Feedback state & auto-closing issues

2019-05-29 Thread Martin Dobias
Hi all Thanks again for all the efforts to migrate tickets to github - having a single platform makes things easier. Going through some of the tickets, I realize we have lots of tickets in feedback state (nearly 400 at this point). My feeling is that there's relatively small chance of getting

[QGIS-Developer] WMTS/XYZ on high DPI screens

Hi all Whenever I use a background map like OpenStreetMap on my high-res laptop screen (192 DPI) in QGIS, the labels are tiny. That is "natural" because tiles are made for screens with ~96 DPI where the size of labels is just fine. When I look at OSM tiles in the browser, I can see that the

Hi Nyall I have seen that too with other QGIS registries, but I am not sure if it is actually broken in SIP or if this should be simply handled in a different way. My understanding is that SIP for an object has the "c++ part" and "python part". If we do not deal with subclasses, things seem to

[QGIS-Developer] Dealing with datum shift grids in QGIS

Hi all Recently I needed transformation between points from high-accuracy GPS to British National Grid (EPSG:27700) which involves datum shift (WGS 84 to OSGB 1936) using OSTN15 grid. The process to do that with QGIS is currently... well... really clumsy. One needs to: 1. manually download grids

Hi Nathan It looks like the CMake module to find HDF library is picking hdf5.dll instead of hdf5.lib import library for some reason. Maybe as a workaround you can manually set the HDF5_C_LIBRARIES variable to the correct .lib file. We are using the standard CMake module to find HDF, so if this
