Thanks Andrea for clearing the shapefile question up. I also write my own shapefiles programatically but haven't fallen foul of this particular item. Regarding my post on this subject, I mentioned that I had no tooltips on any of the toolbar icons. I have searched the documantation but can't find any mention of tooltips. Do they go by another name in QGIS? I tried the Settings/Interface customization menu item to see if there was a setting in there but the window just freezes. I cannot scroll down or click on anything. I have only noticed this in the latest version that I have.
