[QGIS-Developer] QgsGeometryUtils.lineCircleIntersection
Hello all, I am trying to use this on a script I am writing however I can’t seem to get what the syntax for the Qgs Vector should be, I was expecting just to put directly an angle but it is something else. lineIntersection(p1: QgsPoint, v1: QgsVector, p2: QgsPoint, v2: QgsVector) → Tuple[bool, QgsPoint] On the other hand in order to use this function I need to write completely QgsGeometryUtils.lineCircleIntersection is there a way to make this shorter on my script? Finally why some functions require QgsPointXY while others QgsPoint, beats me, just above this one is lineCircleIntersection that requires the use of PointXY.

[QGIS-Developer] Use of master to refer to dev version
Hi, I have seen a debate about master going on in other tech domains and I note that QGIS dev version is called master, is this something that should be addressed? I particularly do not mind but it seems some people are offended by the use of the word master and considering QGIS is a project that prides itself in being inclusive of the community maybe it would be a good idea to review its use Of course I am not a developer just thought today of the issue not because it impacted me but because of what I see other people in tech talking about it , I have no idea on the extent of the changes, impact or even if it is necessary.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Adding plugins to core?
I agree completely with what you have written specially "+1 for adding the functions but -1 for just bringing the plugins into core." Maybe start with some of the easier ones like the value tool you mention From: madman...@gmail.com Date: Sat, 5 Apr 2014 14:00:41 +1000 Subject: Re: [Qgis-developer] Adding plugins to core? To: antoniolocan...@hotmail.com CC: qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org I agree that adding the plugins to core would be a good idea however I don't feel that we should just add them in their current state. The plugin repository has the benefit of of being able to update things faster then the release of QGIS itself if you find bugs, etc, you can also add features for older QGIS versions. I think these features in the plugins are great but we should really integrate them into the core project itself as new features rather then just a plugin. Having Python plugins in core can also raise issue for users because they still look like normal plugins but you can't update them because they are no longer in the repository. Having to enable handy features also feels a bit hap hazard to me. Something like the value tool could easily be integrated into the identify tool for instance. There are also some other concepts floating around the idea of bring CAD functions into core so I think it's best to just focus on making those stronger. So +1 for adding the functions but -1 for just bringing the plugins into core. - Nathan On Sat, Apr 5, 2014 at 1:22 PM, AntonioLocandro wrote: I think it's a great idea, I was actually thinking about this the other day and glad you brought the topic. Although we can install plugins certainly it becomes evident when a plugin should really become a core feature, example the Openlayers Plugin, I bet almost all people using QGIS downloads it before doing anything with QGIS. Plugins extend QGIS functionality beyond what initially was thought but in many cases plugins become a must to be able to work efficiently If the plugins are added to core I would vote for blending the functions coherently with the rest of the interface in the appropriate menus.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Cad-Input for QGIS prototype
Hi Oliver, thanks for copying me in this email Let me tell you that I have installed your prototype and tested it. I do think something like this is needed and I do like the fact that it works with other tools directly. I like the fact it gives you guidelines of what it will do like in CAD software. I think it would be nice to add also the possibility to use right clicks for actions To address your points 1) yes this feature is needed in QGIS, other COTS software have this functionality as Advanced Editing and I do rely heavily daily on this type of things for my job and is amongst several reasons why we cant switch for QGIS. I know the main user base of QGIS probably use it only for analysis but for some of us we need to digitize precisely coordinates based on field data or to create specific features. I would vote to keep to make it part of core as Advanced Tools or something, I also think it would be quite nice to merge the different CAD-like tools into one and have all this contributors who made this individual plugins work as a team. Resources are not always available and to join forces to me seems a better approach 2) I would leave that for developers 3) I cant code, at least I am not at that level. I am just learning python and it might take some time to achieve a level to make something useful. I can however test the plugin and suggest features. I think the best way is to add issues in the github repository of bugs, improvements etc. 4) Some ideas to start with, I will add them to github so you have them there also. I understand it is a prototype to see if it gathers traction but I feel it will - snap to midpoint (snapping options to behave like in CAD software) - Add trim line - Add extend line - Add ability to create arcs e.g. Tan Tan Radius; select center and add radius - Add the ability to draw by deflection angle apart from perpendicular and parallel - Maybe add the possibility to add x,y in DMS, DM, DD when working in WGS84 - The plugin already adds the function to calculate within fields. I think one useful thing in length is that by default it is m (or the epsg default unit I guess ft might be for some) and that you can add different units by adding the appropriate abbreviation like in other COTS e.g. 18 ft 1 NM 1 SM From: olivier.dal...@gmail.com Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2014 03:08:27 +0100 Subject: Cad-Input for QGIS prototype To: qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org CC: diego.gn...@gmail.com; stefan.zieg...@bd.so.ch; bernhard.stro...@jena.de; antoniolocan...@hotmail.com Dear list, Some times ago, on this list, we discussed[1] about real CAD-like input for QGIS, and since I do myself long for such a feature very much, I'd like to reopen that discussion by proposing a python prototype. I know there are already a few plugins aiming in that direction (CadTools, ImprovedPolygonCapturing, NumericalInput and a few other).They provide the functionality, but not the ease of use you can find in CAD packages. One key aspect is that they are all specific tools, and do not work with other tools directly. The prototype is inspired from Archicad's input method which allows to combine numeric input with mouse input in a very efficient and flexible manner, to get the best of both. It is currently very raw and not well tested at all... It also relies on a lot of dirty hacks, since the python API is not well suited for this type of plugins (have a look at the README on the github page for more details). DEMO (video) : https://vimeo.com/85052231GITHUB (readme, download...) : https://github.com/olivierdalang/CadInput Please, tell me what you think : 1) Concept - Does this kind of input seem interesting to you ?- How does it fit in a GIS-environment ? Since it comes from a CAD environment, maybe it's more suited to designing than digitizing. 2) API/Core modifications (read https://github.com/olivierdalang/CadInput#technical-notes ) - How do you see the suggested improvements ? Are they feasible ? - Does developing this as a python plugin make sense, or does it have to be in the core from the start ? (I'm not familiar with core developing) 3) Collaboration...- Is anyone of you currently working on the same topic ? - Would anyone have some time/interest in collaborating on this feature ? 4) Other ideas are welcome !

I have to agree with this, Sextante has become a very recognizable "brand" I feel renaming it doesn't really bring any real benefit and users already know Sextante will be doing Analysis, my two cents with this Antonio Locandro Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2013 20:00:25 +0100 From: filipesd...@gmail.com To: vola...@gmail.com CC: qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org Subject: Re: [Qgis-developer] Renaming SEXTANTE Hi,Many people refer to "Vector" and "Raster" tools as Ftools and GDAL. Sextante, in my opinion, is not different, so I dont see why we should change anything. The Sextante menu is called "Analysis" which makes sense. And Sextante toolbox seems to be a good name, as well as Sextante Modeler. Additionally, Sextante is a recognizable name for gvsig and Arcgis users. Considering that we can expect that a lot more users are going to start using QGIS after 2.0 is released, it would make sense the keep the Sextante naming Best regardsF.

In the long-term, that will help to integrate the analysis framework into QGIS,and help users locate it. It shouldn't be more difficult than just replacing string ocurrences, but before doing such a big (and potentially troublesome) change, I would like to hear the opinion you guys have about this (is it a good idea? what name should we use instead of "sextante" for packages and modules? any good refactoring tool that you recommend?,etc) I am going to be out of office next week, so I might not read my email everyday, but it would be great to hear what you think about it. Once I am back, I will proceed to change it, I discussed it briefly with Tim and Paolo, who agreed on this, so I assumme this is not incompatible with the API freeze and the release plan that we have, but if anyone thinks this shouldn't be done now, please say it. I personally think that it would be good to have it in 2.0, so all analysis stuff is called "analysis" (or whatever) and not with a name that (although I like and feel very identified with it) for most people doesn't make much sense...

Just to reinforce the point raised The pan icon currently in Master are four arrows which are more associated with moving a graphic or a nudge, I would think the most well known symbol for that would be the famous little hand to pan Cheers Ing.

ArcGIS and MapModeller both use simple arrows/circles too. MapInfo doesn't seem to have this functionality. At this point these icons are standard conventions, but the QGIS 2.0 iconography makes that part only 1/6th of the actual icon, instead giving prominence to a magnifying glass that's entirely unnecessary.

Re: [Qgis-developer] New Icons - difficult to "read"
Just a thought, but most of the problems are due to the fact each *add feature* has an icon for "quick access". I would simply vote to have an unified add data button and then select the data you want, someone has proposed something about it but don´t know if it will make it for 2.0 nor do I remember the exact reference. IMHO QGIS has way to many icons cluttering the UI and using precious space specially on small screen laptops Ing.

That should help writing release notes (as visual examples of features will be readily available) as well as being a nice PR effort to attract new users. I believe quite a few of us QGIS users, as well as developers, have by now moved on to using QGIS 1.9 to produce maps. As such, we might already have a pretty good number of already-made maps exemplifying what's coming in v2.0. Anita has already posted a couple of nice blog posts with photos, so did Nyall. It'd be a matter of regrouping the maps under one umbrella. A Flickr group has been set up over here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/2244553@N22/ Nathan and I already uploaded a couple of maps. The concept would be to add maps and a description highlighting the new features (see http://www.flickr.com/photos/60284107@N00/8715653609/in/pool-2244553@N22 for example). To upload to the Flickr group, it requires a Flickr account, which shouldn't be too troublesome as one can link its yahoo or gmail account to log in.

I beg your pardon Larry. I am sure that you were not inspired by Chrome logo. I was thinking about impression it can make on people not about the origin of the logo. Radim, thank you very much for addressing my concern. Your point that the logo should not look too much like an existing one is important. I submitted a last minute design (actually I had 3 minutes left) in which I tried to incorporate a cleaner and more professional look like many devs believe is needed [0], while at the same time paying homage to the old logo and it's funky green arrow. Instead of an arrow I used only a green arrowhead and styled it with a hint of a modern location icon seen on many mobile devices. I think it is my best and most straightforward work on the logo. Hopefully, it doesn't look like anything else out there. :^) [0] https://99designs.com/logo-design/contests/qgis-needs-logo-210397/entries/419 Regards, Larry Sorry again.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Logo Update
IMHO this decision should be taken only by the active qgis dev team behind the whole design process. Why? I am in the mailing list and I can certainly give my opinion, however for any reason I may or may not stick with QGIS in the future (dropping Quantum from the name by the way would be good), however devs have shown commitment with the project, gone to HF, solve user problems, etc. for me that is enough reason for the dev team to make the decision. I say most of the logos that made final round would make a better logo that what is currently used (no offense intended, just reality), like someone mentioned one logo looks more Corporate/Professional, the other looks more Community/Open-Source, I do not know which look would be better for QGIS, I do know if the aim is to displace COTS (because of the benefits it brings to communities which can invest that money in other ways not expensive software) then #50 would certainly look better and would attract more commercial/government interest just because of brochures, website, etc. If the aim is just to be community,open source driven then I would go with dakcarto logo with more rich colours and write a special place in the website explaining the logo and its story behind (would make a nice logo story), remember you should look the brand overall and think all the branding possibilities not just icons, but website colors, brochures, manuals, etc. I would strongly suggest whatever the decision, once made final do not question it, embrace it and move on P.S. My vote is for #50, probably with some tweaking of the color for richness.btw if it get confused so much, you can always rename to OGIS, OpenSource GIS ;) Cheers Ing.

In fact I think the menu structure as is doesn't make much sense and the Edit menu should be renamed to Feature/s. What does Edit mean: - Edit Layer - Edit Feature - Edit Project If you look at all the tools in the Edit menu they are all related to the current feature or features. The undo and redo actions should be moved to the layer menu. Here are my thoughts on the Layer menu: http://i.imgur.com/oYO55Qz.png Moving the Add xxx Layer to the project menu would mean you follow these actions when creating a new project: Project -> NewProject -> Add xxx Layer Change the style Layer -> Properties That is a more logical flow IMO then currently what is there.

I've been standing at the bottom of a large-ish hole today, so if this sounds like a dumb idea that's my excuse. Could we move Layer across next to Project? Some reasoning. 1. If we're abandoning File in favour of Project, then there's possibly no reason to retain Edit next to it either. Other than historical ones. 2. Project and Layer are largely about opening, closing, saving (and other similar things) files. Project files in one menu and Layers (vectors, rasters, DB, etc) in the other. 3. Then you have a more logical progression from left to right about how to use QGIS. (Open stuff, change stuff) -ramon.

In the end most people didn't care, or adapted. There are a lot of applications that don't use a file menu and work quite well, I would say better in fact. http://i.imgur.com/t0QZeJK.png Chrome and Firefox http://images.autodesk.com/adsk/images/autocad_context_sensitive_presspull_large_900x577.jpg AutoCAD Regarding the Edit menu, you will notice that the tools in there are not related to text or documents they only refer to the current feature, or selection of features. If you have a dialog open you can't use that menu, unless the dialog is non model and in that case still doesn't help you as there are no tools to use on text. If the Edit menu is to stay, that is fine however I would suggest a new menu called Feature/s which houses all the current tools in the edit menu minus the Undo/Redo and Copy/Paste Feature.

Certainly on OS X, maybe on other systems. People know what the "File" menu means, even if the main object of an application is a "project", or video or email or whatever. Same goes for the "Edit" menu. And it's standard position is right next to the File menu. Undo, Redo, Cut, Copy and Paste are the basics for the edit menu, and should work in dialog text boxes for copying and pasting text, as well as whatever document editing they may do. Do not move Undo/Redo, more confusion. I realize that this may be Mac-centric, but the OS X HI Guidelines seem to be generally followed or adapted on other systems, and these File and Edit menu changes are a bit radical.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Make QGIS interact with LibreCAD.
Would it be possible as a first interaction if all the CAD/Drawing tools be merged into a single plugin so the plugin library be less crowded and we knew exactly what tools are available? I disagree that some users wont be interested in this tools, some users are just doing analysis and that is fine but to be able to perform analysis and models you sometimes have to create the data, having the tools to create the data is part of every COTS GIS software and it should be part of QGIS. Of course if a user is just doing analysis he would just hide the tools Antonio Locandro From: olivier.dal...@gmail.com Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:57:03 + To: a.neum...@carto.net CC: qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org Subject: Re: [Qgis-developer] Make QGIS interact with LibreCAD. 2013/4/22 Andreas Neumann I would prefer if most of the editing tools would be available in core - - and if possible - implemented in C++. I'm not sure if I agree with that : getting a snapping engine that works smoothly will require a lot of tweaking, which is a pain in C++ compared to python. Also, some user will be interested in adapting the snapping engine to suit their particular habits, which is easy when working with python plugins. And some other users won't be interested at all in this kind of tools.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Make QGIS interact with LibreCAD.
I say it could work if you had an interface where you can set which layers you want to intersect but interactively select snapping within a console. I remember when I used AUTOCAD the thing that I really liked about it is thata. I can draw pretty fast and accurate using only commands but had the icons if I wantedb. Snapping is one of the best I used, you can interactively set the snapping while digitising like snap to end, snap to midpoint, snap to edge, etc. Like Diego said before I will start a shared google document where I will add digitising cases I use/need, once its up you are free to add your particular cases also. The idea is to see if all of this cases can be done using QGIS (core+extensions) at some point in the future I would say the necessary plugins needed to perform this edits would need to be merged into one single plugin. So having a tool with all CAD functions would be great. Ing.

Couple of things here Apparently for buffer to work correctly both the source layer and the project must be in the same projection, I tried to buffer a point in EPSG 4325:WGS 84 to a distance of 10 NM (18 520 m since QGIS doesn't support several units) and it didn't work, I can do this with other COTS software The other point is that it would be nice to be able to have multiple buffer rings, just set the number of desired rings and the buffer distance interval (which would be a constant) This is my example I have one airport which I need multiple rings at 10 NM intervals, In QGIS I would need to do 6-10 times a buffer to a different shapefile and then merge them all together.

I saved this selection to a folder as a shapefile, the behavior I was expecting was for a pop up window or something asking if I wanted to add this layer to the QGIS or not.
