Re: [Qgis-developer] Re: Slow rendering of shapefile in python-qgis application
Just a technical curiosity: why pyqgis rendering should be slower then qgis? The loading and rendering are performed by the C++ code, and I don't see where python plays an inpacting role... giovanni 2011/11/22 Giovanni Manghi > it is much better now on qgis master/trunk, but performances have > changed a lot lately > > http://hub.qgis.org/issues/1978#change-26447 > > > > On Tue, Nov 22, 2011 at 8:03 AM, leonidas > wrote: > > Any news about that speed problem??? > > > > -- > > View this message in context: > http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/Slow-rendering-of-shapefile-in-python-qgis-application-tp6591319p7019678.html > > Sent from the qgis-developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ___ > > Qgis-developer mailing list > > Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org > > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer > > > ___ > Qgis-developer mailing list > Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer > ___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer

Dear QGIS Developers, Users and Supporters! We are pleased to announce that QGIS 1.7.2 is now available. This is a bugfix release over version 1.7.1. A detailed changelog is available on our home page[1]. Binary downloads[2] are already available but some are still making their way to the download page so if you don't see your preferred OS there please check again in a day or two. Thanks to bug reporters who have reported bugs using upgraded issue tracker[3] and special thanks to all developers who fixed those reported bugs. As always, if you find a bug please report it on [3]. QGIS is the collaborative effort of many coders, translators, documentors, bug reporters and other community members. QGIS continues to have great momentum - we recently branched the code base for an upcoming release of QGIS 1.8.0 and we are about to break API compatibility in our 'master' branch to start us down the road towards the eventual release of QGIS 2.0. If you enjoy using QGIS and are able to, please consider sponsoring our project - the money you donate helps us to run our developer meetings and generally keep the project moving forward.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Projection widget improvement
Less than 10 but certainly more than 4, especially when qgis creates user defined entries for unknown or undefined crses. The recently used set will be lost. Most of the time I only need a set of crses for the area of interest I'm working on. I don't need to see the crses for other parts of the world. Just a suggestion to make things easier. I look forward to testing your version with filter.

There is 'categorized symbol' renderer which is meant to act also as a unique value renderer in old symbology.The categorized renderer is just more general - instead of a 'fixed' random color generator you can use colors from any color ramp - currently either a gradient or a random colors (using a subset of color space).

The assignment of colors for adjacent polygons is not addressed in neither old nor in new symbology. Ugly colors? The colors depend on the type of random color ramp you use - a color ramp having colors with higher saturation will look better. Maybe the only issue is the usability - you need more steps to produce an equivalent of unique value renderer. That may be addressed, some ideas how to do it would be welcome. >> 1.

In the new symbology > you can select multiple classes but, if the button "change" is click > then the symbol options are applied only to one of the classes Umm... the original idea was that the button "change" is just for changing the _source_ symbol, not actual selected symbol(s) in the list. This seems to be quite misleading to people and we should do something with it... I refer to the whole thing about selecting source column/ramp/symbol - we discussed it on the list with Marco recently. Maybe a better approach would be: 1. when categorized/graduated renderer is first selected in combo box, it will only show the widgets needed to do classification 2. after classifying those widgets would be hidden (or minimized), not to confuse people, while allowing more space for the list at the same time Martin ___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer

Recently I have been looking at the difference in speed if the plugins and providers were split. With clear file system cache the initialization of provider registry took ~1.8s with providers+plugins in one directory, only ~0.9s with just providers in the directory. For 2.0 we could maybe load the providers (and plugins) only on demand to further save some time - only a directory list would be fetched on startup, the libraries would be loaded when a first layer would be loaded...

The unique renderer seems to give me better results. Am I missing > something? That may have something to do with the random color ramp you use - maybe the amount of classes in renderer is higher than the number of classes in random color ramp? I admit the random color ramp is somehow unfinished - it requires you to define a number of colors, but later it does not allow you to save the generated palette.

Any shared code should be put in a library. This should be made clear in the developer docs and enforced.

There will be some work to polish the results of the migration script.
