Hi list -

I've been experimenting with the new "embedded styling" facility in QGIS 3.20 and used it on a number of MapInfo Tab files. And it woks amazingly well. Using "Embedded Symbols" as symbology type, the TAB based layers look exactly the same in QGIS as in MapInfo. Even the symbology of point objects is spot on (because I have a - long, unused - MapInfo installation lurking on my pc with its TrueType Symbol fonts).

However, I would like to convert to a "normal" categorized symbolisation , because I want to export the tab layer to another format and keep the styling.

So I want to add the OGR Feature Style text for each object into a text column for the layer. And using this column as the categorization column.

So (at last) the question: Is it possible to get the "OGR Feature Style" definition from data formats that supports embedded styling? Perhaps as an expression variable, so the OGR feature style text could be saved into a field and subsequently used as a categorization field ?

Alternatively, some (maybe Python based) method to get a text representation of style definition for each and every object in a layer??
