I even think I can do this myself, just want to poll if I maybe was the only one annoyed :-) Hi Richard, I'm constantly testing OGC services/datasets and querying, and am (quietly) constantly annoyed at the "Derived" results flooding the results panel. I would strongly (or quietly again ha) support a toggle enhancement, as you proposed. A great enhancement. Thanks for bringing this up Richard. -jeff -- Jeff McKenna MapServer Consulting and Training Services co-founder of FOSS4G http://gatewaygeo.com/ ___ QGIS-Developer mailing list QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer

Re: [QGIS-Developer] In Identify Results: hiding (Derived) and (Actions) in treeview?
Hi, Maybe introduce an "Action" to show "Derived" stuff ;-) just kidding. Honestly, I also hardly ever use the "Derived stuff" and I also find it annoying that the "Derived" stuff is so prominent, even before the attributes. But if they are hidden in folded state below the attributes, they wouldn't bother me much. So could we perhaps place "Derived" after the attributes? In the toolbar of the "Identify Results" panel there is already a button for "Identify Settings". Perhaps we can add another setting here to toggle the display of "Derived Properties"?

When I click in a 'crowded place' in which a lot of features are returned, I can open all leaves in the tree(view) but then my sight is pretty polluted by all this (to me very not interesting) facts about where I clicked and to see that I have one (View feature form) Action (I never use). Are others 'seeing' this also as an usability issue? Or am I missing a setting somewhere? Would it be an idea (feature request) to maybe add an option (like the checkbox in the little tool-button menu there), with an option "Hide Derived and Actions"? Or am I the only one which does never used this xtra info?

I find "derived" quite useful. You can immediately see things like area and perimeter of the feature, even if there's no field with that information. Yet, a option to disable it is ok for me.
