If you load them using the delimited text provider, then no, they aren't editable. BUT. if you load them as a ogr layer, they will be! (Since GDAL supports this) So drag and drop them to QGIS, or add via the "add vector layer" button and they'll be editable.

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Editable CSV files
Hi Stefan, although I do not know very much about this topic I wonder how this is solved with other file-based data sets, e.g. shape. Furthermore I would not limit csv to Excel. I normally use an editor for csv (and sometimes LibreOffice). The editor does not lock the file but offers to refresh it if it has been changed on disk. LO does lock the file, so no concurrent editing is possible. Bernhard Am 19.07.2017 um 08:23 schrieb Stefan Keller: Hii Andreas I think this is particularly a Windows issue.

[QGIS-Developer] Editable CSV files
Hi, Is there a particular technical reason why csv/text files aren't editable in QGIS? Or is this mainly for historical reasons and it could be implemented as editable with reasonable effort? I know that there is a plugin called "Editable GeoCSV" - but shouldn't this be supported by QGIS in general, without the need for a plugin?

[QGIS-Developer] Expression based output in Processing
Hi all, (sorry I'm flooding the list) I wonder what is the use case for expression based output in Processing. It makes sense to me for models and for batches (where however is apparently not present), but I do not understand its use case for single algs. Anyone has details?

[QGIS-Developer] Processing batch process interface
Hi all, the button "Run as batch process" in 2.18 opens a new popup, whereas in 3 changes the current one.

Re: [QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-developer] Adding default OSM backround maps
Coming back to the original thread, Petr just made an interesting proposal [1], asking why no integrate into QGIS a vector global basemap? He is also offering ready made vector tiles data (MBTiles) which we (QGIS) could host ourselves. The styling would be done in QGIS. He's also referring to the "Vector Tiles Reader" Python plugin I'm supervising [2]. This astonishing experimental piece of software and will get a last update before final release. This most probably inlcudes "loading/flushing tiles" much like raster tiles (this is in "base map" mode of the plugin. There exist two other modes: Analysis and Inspection). As Petr wrote, the "base map" mode of this Vector Tiles Reader should actually be migrated to a C++ plugin in order to become really fast. Unfortunately I don't have the resources in short terms to accomplish that.
