2017-02-10 Thread Ramon Andinach
Hi Steve, Are you able to add some data to the bug report that isn’t working? A bit of the csv file and the csvt would do. (I just failed to replicate it, although I’m sure I’ve seen it in the last month or so…) Ramon. > On 10 Feb 2017, at 04:34, steve.tout...@inspq.qc.ca wrote: > > Bug

Hi Willem, I can give you an example of where I really, really don’t want the extent to be updated with the refresh button. One of the things I use QGIS for requires making a series of maps using two or more of a set of layers. So I can have a composer set to a wide view to give a regional

I’m not sure what the problem is, but if I were doing that repeatedly, I’d probably use Layer -> Save As, tick the Save Only Selected Features box and save it to CSV. Then muck about with excel later. This way ought to be a bit lighter on the memory. Ramon. > On 10 Jan 2018, at 04:25,

It’s a frequently asked question. QGIS hasn’t been officially checked by Apple (notarised), so macOS puts up the error. If you trust it, then you can add an exemption by right clicking (control-click) on the QGIS.app and select open. I think the readme comment relates to the alternate
