Hi Roberto, I'm assuming Textual Note is an Attribute Value. Do you need the value to happen as you draw the polygon? If you do, I don't know and you'll need to wait for someone else. If you want to write the $perimeter and $area into the attribute table after making your polygons, than I'd use the field calculator. The icon looks like a really small abacus. You can see it on the main icons, but also in the attribute table. You can use this to update all (or just the selected polygons) to show the right information. This is a better explanation than I could do: http://www.qgis.org/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/field_calculator.html (not just in English, e.g. : http://www.qgis.org/it/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/field_calculator.html ) If I've got it all wrong, please do try and make me understand. -ramon. _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
