Re: [Qgis-user] Label using $area and decimals

Hi Lene, have you tried the toint and tostring function ? This formula is to retrieve $area in square km with 2 decimal digit, but I guess, you will adapt it for you : tostring(toint($area/1.0)/100.0) || ' km²' Be warned that the toint make a round operation. Regards.

[Qgis-user] Setting scales for map tile zoom levels

Hi, I have a map tile service showing in QGIS (1.9 snapshot) over a WMTS. I'd like to set the map scales so that the map displays the map tiles in the best resolution possible. I attempted to achieve this by selecting: Settings - Options... - Map tools, deleting the existing scales settings and

[Qgis-user] Feature Subset query builder

Hi List, A general question: Why does this query: area 100 area 1000 return the entire dataset, when this query (same but with brackets): (area 100) (area 1000) returns the correct subset? Surely they both evaluate to the same thing - my (limited)

[Qgis-user] [BUG?] Not possible to edit raster layer title in legend

Using QGIS 1.9 d821bcc, in windows 7 64bits, I'm not able to change the title of raster layers in the legend using legend item properties tab. I have no problems changing the title when working with vector layers. Can anyone confirm this? I'm pretty sure I have done this before. Is there a

Re: [Qgis-user] Feature Subset query builder

Hi Regis, It's a SpatiaLite database. I just tested this in a couple of SQLite clients and they both exhibit the same behaviour, so I guess it's an SQLite issue. Weird. Thanks, Jonathan On 8 August 2013 10:31, Régis Haubourg regis.haubo...@eau-adour-garonne.frwrote: Hi, what is the

Re: [Qgis-user] [Qgis-developer] [BUG?] Not possible to edit raster layer title in legend

Hmm. Had a sporadic the other day with a vector rather than a raster. I'd change the title and the print composer repeatedly ignored the change. I dumped the layer from the legend then added it back in and everything worked as expected. That might at least help as a work around. -ramon.

[Qgis-user] Spatial Join

Hi List, I have two layers of polygons. I want to do some analysis between them, basically doing a spatial join, counting how many of one polygon layer there are intersecting with each polygon in the other layer. ArcGIS does this easily with the Spatial Join tool (ArcToolbox version). How can I

Re: [Qgis-user] Spatial Join

Here's how I would do it: You have Two polygon layers and you need to count the number of polygons in layer 1 that are contained in the polygons in layer 2 1. Convert the polygons in 1 to points: Vector - geometry - polygon centroids 2. then use - vector - analysis tools - points in polygon.

Re: [Qgis-user] Spatial Join

Hi Randal, I had noticed the polygons to points converter, but wanted to do it properly - i.e. with a polygons in polygons comparison. Your method will likely work but adds two extra steps (conversion to points and then from points back to polygons). Does QGIS not have a tool for this then?

Re: [Qgis-user] Spatial Join

It's not temporally critical. I have ArcGIS and can (have) done it there; this is more a learning exercise as to what QGIS can do and how to do analysis with it. Spatially joining data like this is something I seem to do quite often so I was surprised not to find a universal tool. Cheers, Jonathan

Perhaps this isn't a helpful answer, but I try to keep as much analytical work as possible out of my desktop GIS of choice (sometimes QGIS, sometimes ArcMap) and into a spatial database such as PostGIS. A spatial join like you've described is pretty trivial as a SQL query and allows for easy

Jonathon, I agree that it would be preferable to have a button to choose a WMTS connection. This would help the user to know for sure which service that they are selecting. And it would sure help me because my standard base URL is the same for WMTS and for WMS. However I have
