The geometry checking tool does report hundreds of errors. Many of these are "line 0 contains 7 duplicate node(s) at 8” So, what can I do about it? Any suggestions for why this happens and how to fix it? The data is not near a dateline, but is just a region in the middle of a state plane zone, except for all the lines that go over to 0,0. And, as I said, the DWG, and DFX both look OK in other viewers. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
