Hey, I had a feature request through for a python plugin to sort layer drop-down lists alphabetically:
https://github.com/HeikkiVesanto/QGIS_Centroid_Within/issues/3 This is a list of vector layers that are open, that are selected using a QComboBox QT drop-down. I get the layers using: layers = QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().mapLayers().values() Before adding them to the QT dialog: for layer in layers: if layer.type() == QgsMapLayer.VectorLayer: self.dlg.selectWithCombo.addItem( layer.name(), layer ) self.dlg.selectFromCombo.addItem( layer.name(), layer ) I would like to sort these layers based on their name, so layer.name(). I got as far as sorting by name: layers.sort(key=operator.methodcaller("name"), reverse=False) However this is case sensitive, with upper case appearing first. Does anyone know of a plugin that implements sorting? Or an easy way to do it. If all else fails I can revert back to case sensitive sorting. -Heikki _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
