2011-12-01 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi, It is a common requirement that users want to export a QGIS attribute table to Excel/CSV/Spreadsheet. While CSV is probably easy, the other two are probably more complex, but there are some good Python libraries around. For my users, Excel is the most requested table export format. I

hm - what do you mean by that? EPSG 4326 is just one projection format (like thousands of other projections). All shapefile readers should be able to deal with it. In QGIS, when you save to a Shapefiles you can even select the target projection and it will automatically project the data for

I'm going to take a guess that you are asking if QGIS can create a prj file that contains the projection information so that other programs loading the shapefile can also read it. If that's the case I believe the Vector-Data Management-Define Projection tool is what you're looking for.

sorry - unless you are more specific I am unable to help. What difference does it make if it is cloude-made or QGIS/OGR-made? It seems like your PDA app is a bit picky. Maybe a projection limitation or an encoding limitation? As I already said you can change the projection to some other

Hi Andreas Who else would be interested in such functionality? this is one of the features qgis users/trainees ask more around here. So I guess that if they represent a part of the qgis users universe, such feature will interest quite a lot of people :) cheers -- Giovanni --

A useful extension to the existing functionality would be to be able to disable the WKT column transfer in some way which would significantly reduce the volume of data being transferred via the clipboard, and consequently speed up the process. I agree, such option would be very useful.
