Re: [QGIS-Developer] Changelog Time for 3.22

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi changelog contributors,

I've been reading through the changelog entries, checking grammar and 
readability, and noticed that many entries refer to PR. Given that the 
target audience of the changelog is more than just developers / 
contributors, would anybody be unhappy if I changed PR to something like 
"feature" or "function"? So an entry that currently reads "This PR 
allows users to ..." would change to "This feature allows users to ...".


Regards, Frank.

Hi All

Since we are in feature freeze now,  can I ask you all (especially 
contributors of new features to) please clean up your entries in the 
changelog - lots of them need tidy ups to be presentable for the 
changelog.


https://changelog.qgis.org/en/qgis/version/3.22/ 



Even if you didn't develop features, it would be great if you are able 
to contribute improvements to make the changelog readable. If you need 
any help, contact myself or Charles (char...@kartoza.com 
).


Thanks!

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Getting changelog ready for 3.14

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi Tim,

I've had a look through the changelog and have allocated each entry to a 
category. Authors might want to check that their entries are allocated 
correctly as I might have classified some of them incorrectly. I've also 
replaced "PR" with words like "update", "feature" or "change" and have 
removed references to github and QEP where I came across them.


Regards,
Frank.

your list again - I will add it in the changelog site.


@Frank and others reviewing entries - I would like to remove developer 
technical jargon from the entries if possible - e.g. “This PR” and 
similar references to PRs and git workflows which will probably be 
meaningless to most users.

Hi

Toto: I re-ingested the Changelog entries now.

Richard: For the entry images that are linked to GitHub embedded images
we either need to import them over or just link out to them in the
generated RST. If you tell me which you prefer I will ask Anita Hapsari
to help make that happen before the release.


Hi Tim,

I think I prefer these images IN the export. Then at least the 'old' way
will just work.

If that is in place I can have a further look at using for example

https://github.com/sphinx-contrib/images

Or if that fails (as it does now with me), then I can have a look at
generating thumbnails myself and add some ::target to them to the real
image or so

I also tested current export, and besides the usual little hick-ups
(because of content of the items) there are some new bigger ones, of
which I created issues:

https://github.com/kartoza/prj.app/issues/1186
https://github.com/kartoza/prj.app/issues/1187
https://github.com/kartoza/prj.app/issues/1188
https://github.com/kartoza/prj.app/issues/1189

It would be great if Anita could find some time before the release to
have a look into these.



Ah great, thanks for filing those. @anita can you take a look through 
those?


@Frank last release you were wanting to help out with the changelog - 
will be great if you are available to pitch in.


@Richard for now I think I will manually just move the images into the 
entries which should fix the issues with embedded images.

Re: [QGIS-Developer] QGIS Georeferencer improvements

While I like the live preview of option B, I find this option difficult

raw image, covers the bottom raster as the live image transformation
proceeds, requiring the top raster to be toggled on/off when identifying
GCPs. In this case I find the current dual window approach is better as
the images can be placed side-by-side for easier identification of GCPs.

Yeah this case when georeferencing aerial imagery on top of other
aerial imagery is a valid concern. This could be possibly addressed by
having a switch (with a keyboard shortcut) that would toggle opacity
of the georeferenced layer to 0% and 100% (or some other values).

Another option would be to have an action to open a new map canvas
dock widget containing just the georeferenced layer (with live warp as
well) that could be either docked on the side of QGIS main window or
even moved to a second display. Closing this map canvas dock widget
would make the georeferenced layer appear again in the main map
canvas...

What do you think? In this way, with single canvas by default and with
optional "pop out" georeferencing canvas we could probably address the
issue nicely.


I like the option of a switch and keyboard shortcut. I think that 
programmatically it would be much easier to implement than having a dock 
widget. It is currently possible to assign shortcuts to the *Show 
Selected Layers* and *Hide Selected Layers* commands but these have to 
be different key combinations. It would be nice to have the same 
shortcut toggling the selected layer on/off.

QGIS window as well. (Or maybe the other way around - to keep
georeferencer as a separate window, but allow the main map canvas to
be embedded in it?)

I would personally prefer the second option. I think a significant
amount of users doing regular georeferencing would have dual screen
setups (or large screens) and would appreciate having the a larger
georeferencer window then a dock would allow.

I have been thinking about this and what are the pros and cons of
having a separate window for georeferencing vs doing georeferencing in
main map canvas. Actually rather than discussing whether to have one
or two windows, the key bit to decide on is something else - what
would be the coordinate system of the georeferencer canvas:

A. image coordinates - that is what we have in QGIS georeferencer now:
the image gets loaded without any distortion and stays that way all
the time. Picking of map coordinates for GCPs has to be done in a
separate map canvas. (i.e. one click in "georeferencer canvas", and
one click in "reference map canvas")

B. map coordinates - that is what ArcGIS does. The image is placed at
some initial position in the map, picking of image coordinates and map
coordinates for GCPs is done in the same map canvas. (i.e. two clicks
in single map canvas)

The option B has the advantage that it is quite easy/intuitive to have

the images can be placed side-by-side for easier identification of GCPs.




So where I am hesitating is whether to stick to option A which is
probably familiar to QGIS users - or with option B that may provide
better UX thanks to the live update of the warped raster (or vector).
I guess we will need to choose one or the other - supporting both
options would be probably too confusing. I am trying to figure out
which way to take, because this will also have great impact on the
workflow on how GCPs would be picked on the map(s) using map tools...

Thanks for your thoughts :-)

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Get rid of 'Manage Layers Toolbar', or not?

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi Richard,

I wouldn't like the 'Manage Layers Toolbar' to be removed just yet. I 
use the 'Spreadsheet layers' plugin a lot and this plugin places an icon 
on the Manage Layers toolbar. This is very convenient as it means the 
plugin can be accessed with one click. If the Manage Layers toolbar were 
removed then users would have to access the plugin through the menu bar 
(Layer > Add Layer > Add spreadsheet layer) which is slightly less 
convenient.


Perhaps the authors of the plugin, Camptocamp, need to be involved in 
this discussion?

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Value entry using comma as decimal separator?

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi all,

Following on from this conversation:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2017-July/049227.html

it seems we have issues in the qt5 builds under locales which use
commas as decimal separators. Under these locales entering a value
like "5,5"  in a spin box (such as those used in the symbol layer
properties) , then moving focus away from the widget, will discard the
changes.

I know *nothing* about what's the expected behavior here, but a quick
google search leads me to believe that most software follow QGIS'
approach and require users to always use ".", regardless of the locale
(e.g. [1]). Is this correct?

It's a trivial change to make to get the spin boxes to accept the
local decimal separator, but this would prevent users entering "5.5"
in those locales.

Can someone from one of these affected regions let me know what the
correct behavior should be? I don't want to make the change if it
breaks entry of 5.5 and that's the standard used in those locales.

https://ux.stackexchange.com/questions/74369/is-a-decimal-comma-used-in-data-entry


Hi Nyall,

I'm in South Africa where the comma is the official decimal separator. 
If I set my locale to South Africa ZAF (both on Ubuntu Linux and 
Windows) then a comma is expected as the decimal separator. However, I 
have met very few people in South Africa who actually use a comma, or 
even know that it is our "official" decimal separator. Everyone uses a 
decimal point.


This leads to problems in QGIS, however. I'm using QGIS Master on Ubuntu 
17.04 set to locale ZAF and if, for example, I want to change a stroke 
width in the Styling Dock then this is what happens:


- I initially see the default stroke width displayed as 0,26 Millimeter.

- If I change the value by using the spinner all is fine. One click up 
and the value changes to 0,46.


- If I try type in a number such as 0,8 and push enter/tab the number is 
automatically changed to Hairline.


- If, instead, I type in the number with a decimal point 0.8 the number 
is accepted but the decimal point is automatically changed to a comma.


This is confusing, to say the least. The number has to be entered with a 
point but is displayed with a comma. For me the ideal would be to use a 
decimal point throughout and ditch the comma.


Frank.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Future of standalone browser?

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi all,

My feeling is that the standalone browser should be retired and not included in 
version 3.0. I don't think it provides any functionality that isn't already 
provided in QGIS and the browser panel and in my view is now obsolete.

As an aside, how easy would it be to adapt the standalone browser code to serve 
as a QGIS dialog for adding vector and raster layers?

Subject: [Qgis-developer] Future of standalone browser?

Hi all,

Just wanted to raise the discussion about the future of the standalone
QGIS browser.

The current situation (as I see it)

- Ignoring a tiny change I made a couple of days ago (to make the
preview use a pan tool), the last commit to standalone browser
(besides general api fixes) was... adding a new icon in may 2015.

- The standalone browser is very limited. There's lots of
functionality available in the browser panel in the main app which
isn't available in the standalone browser, like the search filter and
everything in the right click context menus.

- The current state of the standalone browser is "schizophrenic" at
best. It's predominantly a read-only display of data, but with some
extra random functionality in a toolbar (add wms server (what about
wfs/wcs/etc?), create shapefile (what about spatialite/geopackage?),
set layer projection)

- The UI is very unpolished - eg there's a "header" header over the
browser tree (http://mappinggis.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/5.png)

I'm guessing, given this, that there's not a lot of demand for the
standalone browser. This may either be due to lack of interest in this
functionality in general, or else just a reflection of the current
limited functionality available in it.

So what should we do with the standalone browser in 3.0 and future? is
there a future here, or should we just drop this functionality and
save ourselves the maintenance burden? And if there IS interest in
keeping the browser around, is anyone able to step up and sponsor some
investment into making browser more useful and polished?

Hi Matthias,

It doesn't seem to be related to Chrome. I rebooted my computer and then ran 
QGIS without any other programs running and the problem still occurs.

I haven't been running updates everyday but the last good state of code was 
git20160902 8688fef, which was installed on 2016-09-13.

I was notified about a similar problem yesterday. Are you able to tell
when the last "good" state of code was?

Just in case, I had similar troubles in an unrelated Qt app recently. In
that case I had the feeling that it was triggered by a browser (chrome)
running at the same time some expensive javascript operations.
This might give a possible lead or be just some random misinterpretation
from my side.

Hi Paolo,

The same thing seems to happen with project files. If you create a

Yes, this looks like the problem. Has anyone come up with a work-around

See the ubuntu ticket.  Downgrading cmake to the version of vivid helps.

Thanks, I'll have a look at that. I haven't been compiling QGIS myself 
but will try doing that with the downgraded version of cmake.

[Qgis-developer] Processing - Set style for raster layer bug?

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi all,

If I use the "Set style for raster layer" tool in [Processing Toolbox >

is loaded but isn't applied. To apply the style I have to go to Layer 
Properties > Style and then click the Apply button. Is this a feature or

Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS 2.10.1 Pisa - Read CSV file problem

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi Zoltan,

I wonder if this is a DBF format restriction. If I remember correctly 
DBF field names have to start with a letter followed by any combination 
of letters and numbers up to the maximum field name length.

Hi,
Using the above version on Win 7 64 bit, I read a CSV file (as
attributes only) stipulating that first record has field names
Record 1 is as follows:
SALnum,SALnam,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10+

When I open the attribute table, I see that fields 1  2 have names
SALnum and SALnam, but the rest are called 'Field_3', 'Field_4' and so on.

When I edit record 1 of this CSV file to look like:
SALnum,SALnam,1p,2p,3p,4p,5p,6p,7p,8p,9p,10+p

The I get the correct field names (albeit 1p instead of just 1)

Is this an error, or is there some reason further down the line, that
attribute tables cannot have 'numeric' field names?

Thanks and regards,

Re: [Qgis-developer] Bug in rendering Rasters in QGIS 2.4 2.6 and 2.8 in Windows

[Frank Sokolic]

I can confirm this behaviour. I am getting it when displaying a 
georeferenced jpg using QGIS 2.8.1 64 bit (standalone installer) running 
on Windows 8.1.


When zooming in or out the raster image sometimes doesn't display. I've 
tried it with OTF both on and off and the bug still occurs.


I've also tried changing the rendering behaviour in the Options  
Rendering dialogue. The bug occurs irrespective of whether User render 
caching and Render layers in parallel are on or off.

Dear All,
I had posted this in QGIS users list but I did not get any feedback. While
using the latest QGIS 2.8 ( 64 bit ) in Windows XP/7/8/8.1 in 6 laptops, I
found that large ( 300+ mb Landsat with 6 band image )raster images failed
to redraw while I zoomed in/out or while panning. This behaviour was so
random that I was forced to recommend 2.2 to all the users who are supported
by my team.

It is not possible to use raster images for interpretation as the images do
not appear when we zooming or panning. I have placed a video where I have
compared the behaviour in 2.8 vs 2.2. A raster and a vector are shown. You
will be able to see that the raster disappears randomly and does not redraw
even if we pan or zoom. It reappears randomly.

Video Link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wjly6C445uEfeature=youtu.be

I tested this in Macbook Pro with Qgis2.6 and I did not see this problem so
it might be only seen in windows systems.

I hope this will be looked into at the earliest.

Thank you for your time.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Regarding having multiple layers in print composer QGIS

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi Nancy,

Instead of labelling the polygons with the values of a single field you 
can use multiple fields by building an expression using the expression 
builder. In the Layer Label Settings dialogue you'll see the button for 
the expression builder next to the box where you choose the field.


If you have two fields, one called ID and the other NAME, then you can 
build an expression like:

 ID  || ' ' ||  NAME

If you would like these to appear on different lines then you can set 
the label to wrap on a character, e.g. an asterisk *, and then write 
your expression as:


 ID  || '*' ||  NAME

You can also insert your own text into the labels like this:

'ID: ' || ID  || '*Name: ' ||  NAME


Hope that helps.

Frank.

Respected Sir,

I wanted to know if we can have multiple labeling in print composer.After 
digitization i made the id's as the label now i want to have one more attribute 
as a label on the same digitized layer along with the id's as the label.

1.png and 2.png shows the 2 label's of the same vector file.Now is there any 
way to put these 2 label's one over the other with different properties( e.g 1 
label id should come in middle of layer and then 2 label shape comes somewhere 
inside the layer).

Can we do this?

Hi,

There's a thing that happens to me when I'm editing the attribute table
of layers (both PostGIS and shapefiles) in QGIS.

I change the content of one (or more) fields, but the content displays
the same. I save the editions and continues to show the old value. To
see the changes, I have to close and re-open the attribute table.

I've confirmed and this happens to many people. I confess I've noticed
this from some versions ago (including the current master), and I think
I got used to it, but it is certainly a bug.

As it is a situation that is not easy to replicate, because does not
always happen, I can not open a ticket with truly useful information.

What do you think?

For the problem with South African CRSs, is this not a simple fix, i.e. 
edit the proj4 parameters in the srs.db file to remove the +axis=wsu 
options from all the Lo CRSs? If so, does anyone know how to do it?

[Qgis-developer] Error deleting last node while digitising

[Frank Sokolic]

Dear list, 

I've come across two errors when digitising with QGIS Master:

1. When digitising lines or polygons, pressing the delete or backspace key 
erases the second-last, and not the last point digitised. This is with QGIS 
1.9.0-Master, QGIS code revision d61cb25 on Windows XP.

2. QGIS crashes when pressing the delete or backspace keys while digitising 
lines or polygons. This is with the latest nightly build of QGIS 1.9.0-Master 
on Ubuntu 13.04.

Can anyone confirm these?

Re: [Qgis-developer] Projection widget improvement

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi All,

I find that the internal projection ID is important when working with User 
Defined Coordinate Systems. In these cases there is no Authority ID and being 
able to see the internal projection ID is necessary when moving QGIS projects 
between different computers. User defined coordinate systems are not always 
defined in the same order on different computers, resulting in the same user 
defined system having different IDs on different computers.

When loading projects QGIS seems to match up user defined systems by ID and not 
the name, which causes problems when moving projects between computers. In 
these cases it is important to see the IDs in order to match up the user 
defined systems when opening a project on another computer.

Example: Computer 1 has a user defined system called Lo31 with an internal ID 
of 1 and a system called Lo33 with an ID of 10001. Computer 2 also has user 
defined systems of Lo31 and Lo33 but these have IDs of 10001 and 1, 
respectively (because they have been defined in a different order to computer 
1). If a project using Lo31 is moved from computer 1 to computer 2, QGIS on 
computer 2 assigns the project a CRS of Lo33, which is wrong.


Frank.

Subject: [Qgis-developer] Projection widget improvement
Hi all. 
I think the projection widget should be improved, by having the search 
filtering the projections rather than moving to the next matching (as it 
happens e.g. in the plugin list). Also, it would be good to have the 
search working in both fields (people often overlook the search field 
selector). Finally, the internal projection ID could be hidden (I do not 
see any use of it for the user). 
If agreed, it's a trivial change. 
All the best.
