Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
I think Nyall will have some more information where things go right and where they (can) go wrong. Before improving the dialog text, we will need some insights into what actually can go wrong and if we are able to predict that a certain output is particularly prone to suffer from deficiencies. As a second step we can write a message (or messages) that hints a user towards potential problems (we see you are using blend modes, these will be lost when exporting to format X, consider using Y instead) and give task-focused suggestions (if you want to further edit the result or use it for interactive web-publishing, use SVG, if you use it for printing and static presentation prefer PDF).

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
Hi there, even on EPS, PS or PDF, output with effects never really work pretty well. Some flavors of those types don't accept transparency at all. Actually, I never wanted to remove the warning. Please keep the dialog, just update the message. Perhaps a more neutral warning should be better, like you suggest. I just was curious because I didn't find EPS/PS export support at all and this made me wonder about the dialog's content.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
Hi Richard, no, I was talking about QGIS2 (stable), but I was wrong about Qt5, I'm sorry. I've looked for Qt5 libraries installed only and didn't check that QGIS2 still uses Qt4. I don't have a clue, why the installer installed Qt5 anyway. QGIS2 doesn't have EPS export, does it? I can't find it anymore. Perhaps I'm looking at the wrong menu again...

Hi Hisham, I don't know a QGIS-Plugin, but if you use QGIS with PostGIS, you have more options. 2 approaches with PostGIS are: ST_ApproximateMedialAxis >> https://postgis.net/docs/ST_ApproximateMedialAxis.html ST_StraightSkeleton >> https://postgis.net/docs/ST_StraightSkeleton.html Ralf -- Sent from: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/QGIS-User-f4125267.html ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

It is easier to warn a user (just like apt is doing with you): "hey apparently that package is temporarily broken because it is dependent on that one, while that one is not yet updated". This is exactly what the message is that you are seeing. It is warning you that you should not FORCE the update, but have to wait some time (days?) so all dependent packages are on par too. So the message you get is not a message of a 'broken system' but more 'this part is in flux, but hold on, we are working on it'. It is not chaos, it is reality (while some people think a shiny outside or hidden transparency is the same as an ordered system :-) )... Please have that trust in the volunteers, OR else take the steering wheel yourself, and offer help.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
Hi Richard, In this case I was confused by the term stable in the previous message. If this is still there on 2.99, can you check if SVG export also works with * Transparency * Layer blend modes IIRC, these were the tricky things.

Dear Bernd, The transition of GDAL has been communicated in the UbuntuGIS mailing list since Nov 7: https://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu@lists.osgeo.org/msg01406.html Also, the hint that the maintenance team (volunteers) is trying to break QGIS packages on purpose is totally unacceptable.

[Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
Hi there! I'm on latest QGIS2 (stable). When choosing "SVG export" on map composer, you'll get this warning: "The SVG export function in QGIS has several problems due to bugs and deficiencies in the Qt4 svg code. In particular, there are problems with layers not being clipped to the map bounding box. If you require a vector-based output file from Qgis it is suggested that you try printing to PostScript if the SVG output is not satisfactory." QGIS2 uses QT5 and there's no PostScript export support anymore ;) Shall I file this as a GUI bug?
