1. Choose a CRS for your _project_ using the menu "Settings" -->
   "Project properties" --> Tab "Coordinate Reference System (CRS) and
   choose the CRS from the dialog. Remember to enable "on the fly CRS
   transformation"
2. Open your layer(s). Don't think about the projection here.
3. Right-click on each of your layer(s) in the "Layers" dialog and
   choose "Set layer CRS". If necessary, choose the CRS for the
   individual layer.

In some cases the CRS for a layer can't be inferred from the information in the layer's datafile or QGIS can't read it correctly. Executing step 3 for each "problem" layer corrects this problem.

When I click Layer-->'Add vector layer.....' I can browse for files, shp, gpx, and so on, but never chose an CRS in that menu. My Background map are in RT90 coordinate system in meters approx 1500000,6500000 m but gpx files come to 17 and 60 m (not degree), way ot of the map...

    Yes it is possible, the option "on-the-fly reprojection" does just
    that. Choose the main CRS as the project CRS (it will be used for
    distance calculations, etc.). Then when you add a layer you can
    choose its CRS individually, QGIS will do the transformation.

    Subject: [Qgis-user] gfx in WSG 84 added to another CRS (EPSG:3021)


    Hi.
    I can transform gpx file from a GPS (WSG84) to an old swedisch CSR
    EPSG:3021 (RT90 2,5 gon V metric coordinate system)) shape file,
    but I whant to let the program transform on the fly.

     I know that year 1999 Silicon graphic had it on there 'super
    coomputers' and GIS-softwate, and I also see that QGIS have under
    menue:
    *Settings-->Options-->CRS*-tab have an option to check 'on the fly
    reprojection' in option.

    Under options-->CRS can you define default project CRS and defaut
    CRS to what your add in layers, but If you have a lot of old files
    with diffenent CRS it could be errors. Now Sweden is in transition
    from RT90 to SweRef99 (very near WSG84)

    Is it possible to add vector files with other CRS, or even rasters
    to a project without transform it?

    /Cheers
