[Qgis-user] Value relations in QGIS

Question. I'm working with a group and I'm attempting to "idiot proof" editing a bit - well - at least the attribution. I've set up a database (postgresql/postgis) and went so far as to set up foreign keys. I set up value relations and we now have drop down lists for about everything. I

Many processing tools are duplicates. For example, If I filter for "buffer" I find 13 results in QGIS, GDAL, SAGA and GRASS libraries. Since these last 3 are external projects, QGIS cannot control which tools are in there. And why should "somebody at QGIS" choose for you and everybody else

Yes, I know this one, but it's way too simple for advanced cartography. Actually, the substitution panel needs regex or expressions to give it more control. In German context, you don't want to replace all "straße" to "str.". The check for a whole word is not enough. I have done lots if

Hi Tobias, You don't need regex. There is a replacement table: see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaepblv3uMU But I think the replacements will always apply, not just in the case there is no space for the full label. Andreas On 2017-03-17 10:13, Tobias Wendorff wrote: > Seems like this

Hi All, I'm attempting to visualize the data contained in a XTF file in QGIS (OGR provider). I'm using these data [1], specifically the Lake polygon layer, which has 3 features. QGIS displays the geometries but cannot distinguish among features, i.e., if I select one, all 3 lakes are selected.
