You have to do it this way in the Composer, the whole point of a a geographic grid is to put it on a non-geographic projection map, for navigation purposes. This is clearly a bug. -Alex On 06/02/2016 05:51 AM, Nicolas Cadieux wrote: > Hi, > I am trying to understand.  You said " I had some Anta

For smoother lines you can use my Lines Graticule (pyGraticule) maker in in the Processing toolbox, scripts from online. As for the 180, I had the same issue. I can't get any lines to show up between 170 <-> -170, though my polygon renders correctly through that area. This seems to be some sort o

Hi, I am trying to understand.  You said " I had some Antarctic polar stereographic data and when applying a  WGS-84 long-lat grid in map composer" . That means you have 2 CRS.  One in Polar stereographic and the graticule are in WGS84. You are therefore reprojecting on the fly. That is always

Hi Nicolas, The grid I have is already projected in an Antarctic South polar, so that was not the issue with on the fly projection. I just fail to understand why the graticules in map composer seem odd in Polar views. As you say, the other option is to generate a vector grid and densify, however y

Hi, When crossing the equator, 0 or 180 degrees, you will always have difficulty reprojecting shapes on the fly.  That is what you are doing.  Your project is in polar but you are creating a grid in WGS84.  That grid is being reprojected on the polar project.  That will always happen when you try

Hi Nicolas, The problem is not so much with the grid as that displays fine. The issue crops up with the map composer, and even with the grid as WGS-84 the same problem persists. Looked at both North and South polar views and the 180 graticule is always missing irrespective of the increment used. T

Hi, Try saving the layer in WGS-84. Then make sure the project is also in the same projection.  It can help sometimes to make a spatial index. Keep me posted. Nicolas On Jun 1, 2016 05:35, "Lester Anderson [via OSGeo.org] " wrote: Hello,

Hello, I had some Antarctic polar stereographic data and when applying a WGS-84 long-lat grid in map composer it generated most of the longitude lines (180 missing), and very crude latitude lines (clearly visible straight line segments). Is there any way to improve the latitude lines? Lester Te
