Dear QGIS users, I updated to the new Version of QGIS 2.0.1 and encountered a bug (or feature) when creating a new vector layer. When you load a raster (with projection) and you want to digitize certain areas of this raster, then the vector file used to have the same projection as the old one

Feature - I think. I did the exact same thing you did. Go to Settings - Options - CRS and change the default behavior for vector. It can inherit the CRS or the raster - if the project is set to the same CRS (I believe). If that makes sense. randy - Randal Hale, GISP North

I've had confusing CSV incompatibility issues as a Mac user (though not with GQIS). Turns out that Mac Excel does not code the files in UTF-8, and that chokes some applications. One quick fix was to load the file into Text Wrangler and save it specifying UTF-8 as the character coding.
