Hi, I have a layer with many polygons. I want to change the color of some of the polygons. How can I do this in QGIS? Currently changes apply to all the polygons, not individual one. Thanks :-) KLGan ___ Qgis-user mailing list

Hi, This is very basic GIS stuff. Please consult the QGIS manual for this. As a hint: You need to define either of: * a rule * a category * assign a column that contains color values These are available in the layer properties and in the Styles tab. All of these are described in the QGIS

Dear Jake, you can use the topological editing. In Settings/Snap options dialog enable topological editing, check Avoid Intersections for the editing layer and optionally set a tolerance for snapping. After it you have to draw only the missing part of the a new polygons. Regards, Zoltan On

Hi Ramon, What you describe is data-defined styling - taking the symbology options from a db field. In QGIS you can use this for label settings, like font-family, font-color, position, styles, etc. - unfortunately this is not available for the simpler task of styling polygons or lines. It would
