Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS3 Layout - North Arrow?

2018-03-29 Thread Murkor 
Just to weigh in as a daily user of GIS software as a spatial information
analyst and field biologist;
yes inserting a north arrow as an image works. However, it would be
worthwhile to have a dedicated north arrow insert tool, like the scale bar
tool, with number of north arrow options that is significantly increased
over what is presently available in the "Search Directories" library of
icons.

Cheers,
Mike

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS3 Layout - North Arrow?

2018-03-29 Thread Murkor 
Frank,

This assumes your lines are drawn from some spatial file and you have
labeled them.

To display the labels for lines without the lines do this:
1.  Open "Layer Properties" dialogue from menu or Layers Panel;
2.  Click "Style" tab;
3.  In the box that is center-left (QGIS 2.x) or top-left (QGIS 3.x), that
shows "Line - Simple line" click on "Simple line";
4.  Click the dropdown labelled "Pen style" (QGIS 2.x) or "Stroke style"
(QGIS 3.x);
5.  Click "No Pen" in the dropdown; and
6.  Click "OK".

This will display the labels without the lines.

Cheers,
Mike

It is an Open Street Map layer. I discovered that by selecting "Unclassified" 
for the line template, I end up with the look I want. Thanks for the help.

Hi Frank,

In the layout, in the item properties for the map, there's a section for "Grid".

If you look in there, and use the "Modify grid" button there are a number of 
options under "Grid type".

"Markers" or "Frame and annotations only" is probably close to what you want.

Thanks Phil, your instruction worked fine.

Another issue: I have a Map Lines layer that I am using with Simple Lines and 
Labels. Is there anyway to show the Labels, but not the Simple Lines?

I think it is not worth the effort to ask for that.
The devs had plenty of time to add a specific north arrow tool, but obviously 
had no great interest in it.
The map canvas and the composer window are completely different things, so 
there is no automatism to have the same features within both.
And actually it is quite clever to use the same tool for adding north arrows or 
any other image with one button ... it's just about telling the users where to

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS3 Layout - North Arrow?

2018-03-28 Thread Dietrich Heintz 
I normally use a text field and add one letter that represents a north 
arrow from a font.
Those fonts can be found, well I believe in the internet, but as far I 
know as well ESRI has its nort arrows as a font.

Then just add the relevant font to the folders where your OS keeps them.

"decorations". It would be great if I could access the "decorations" in the

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS3 Layout - North Arrow?

2018-03-28 Thread Raymond Nijssen 

Hi Frank, it is really easy if you know what to do.

In your Print Composer

1. Add a Map:
   2. Set rotation to anything <> 0

3. Add an Image:
   4. Open "search directories" and pick a pre installed north arrow
   5. Check "Sync with map" for "Image rotation"

Good luck!

Raymond

Actually I disagree - I think there's room here to add a dedicated
"north arrow" button to layout designer which adds a picture item but
automatically defaults it to a nice north-arrow picture and sets to
the match the main map's rotation. There would be no code duplication
- it would still just be a standard picture item, but with some nice
defaults so that new users can easily create north arrows.

We do this approach in 3.0 with "line arrow" items too - effectively
they are just the same as polyline items, but default to having an
arrow marker on their end point.

I don't understand this. Is there no way to add a north arrow in the Print 
Composer? You can easily add a scale.

I think it is not worth the effort to ask for that.
The devs had plenty of time to add a specific north arrow tool, but obviously 
had no great interest in it.
The map canvas and the composer window are completely different things, so 
there is no automatism to have the same features within both.
And actually it is quite clever to use the same tool for adding north arrows or 
any other image with one button ... it's just about telling the users where to 
look for.

Not sure I understand what you mean by "not included in the layout" as it's
provided by the picture tool from the layout.
Anyway... place to make suggestion to QGIS Developers is

Hi, 

There's no north arrow specific tool in the layout; you need to use the image 
item. See 
https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/user_manual/print_composer/composer_items/composer_image.html
