Perhaps you miss a "webkit" related package? Perhaps do a "apt search webkit" search and see what webkit packages are available. Something around webkit with qt and python. I know that some Debian versions removed Webkit and maybe the newer Ubuntu versions did so as well? Hope this helps,

Hi Grant, Are you talking about different glyphs in a single font or that every marker resides is in a different font? Both would be possible using data-defined properties. But it would be easier to maintain and probably also faster/more efficient if you use just a single font and just change

Re: [Qgis-user] Labelling certain contours

2016-08-18 Thread Neumann, Andreas
Hi Lester/Carlos, Even better would be to use a rule-based label (available since 2.14 I think). With rule-based labeling it is most likely a bit faster, since QGIS doesn't have to deal with all of the contours that are not a multiple of 1000. In your case, with the CASE statement it still
