Hi,
I was thinking that now when Matthias and Larry have been working with
selection styles it might be good to collect a list about things in
OpenJUMP styling which do not work or work in somehow irritating way.
I can start with couple of issues:
\- Colour theming option creates all the new classes with the default
styles. Each theme will then have both the fill and line rendering
selected, colours are synchronised, and line width is 1. However, I
would rather see the classifier to take the defaults from the Rendering
tab so I could set for example the line width somehow bigger for all the
classes. Usually it would mean less manual fine tunign this way.
\- It seems to be impossible to show vertises on classified layers. There
is no user interface for that in the "Colour Theming-Custom" and
defaults are not taken from the main Rendering tab.
\- The above issue, I think, makes it impossible to use colour theme on
point layers. Or it is possible, OpenJUMP is doing the classification,
but all the points are still rendered with the same colour.
\- "Custom" dialogue for a classified layer shows also Transparency
slider. However, it is affecting all the classes and not only the
selected one. It might be better to remove the slider from the "Custom"
dialogue. There is another slider on the main Colour Theming tab and
also the transparency slider on the main Rendering tab can be used.
\- There is a little issue with the polygon styling. If I create a new
layer with OpenJUMP and draw a polygon, and next select to show vertices
option from the Rendering tab, as a result ONLY the vertices are shown
but the outline and fill disapper. It took me a long time to discover
that this happens only if a layer does not have any attribute fields in
its schema. It is enought to insert one attribute field into the schema
to correct the rendering. Attribute field can be empty for all the
features, it does not matter.
To start a wishlist for the future, QGis "New symbology" option gives a
possibity to build easily multi-layer or multi-stroke symbols. Something
like that would by nice to have in OpenJUMP also. For example a road
with red fill, black borders and black dottet centre line could be
constructed by piling up a wide black line, a narrover red line and a
most narror black dottet line on top. For point layers even such a
simple style than big coloured circle and a small insert with another
colour can make the map much more easier to read.
GGis User manual
http://download.osgeo.org/qgis/doc/manual/qgis-1.4.0\_user\_guide\_en.pdfha
s something about New Symbology option in chapter
5.4.3. Working with the New Generation Symbology
On manual page 54, Figure 16, \(a\) Line composed from three simple lines
may give an idea about multi-layer symbols.
