Re: [Qgis-user] Changing default pop-up attribute when using Identify tool

2021-12-08 Thread David Greenewalt
Double click on the layer to bring up layer properties, then find the 
tab for "Display".  At the top of the window is a field selection list.  
This will set the value to display at the top of the identify window.  
Hope this is what you're looking for.

Hi,

I doubt that there is a simple way to change the behaviour of the
identify tool.

Recently, I came up with an idea how to quickly display whatever value
or even calculations by circumventing the identify tool but use a
special label setting and using the select tool.

Have a look here: https://gis.stackexchange.com/a/416224/8202

This example is about showing the area of a selected polygon, but
instead of the formula, you can put in every attribute of a layer.

Cheers,

Bernd
