Re: [Qgis-developer] Is it possible to: Print canvas without Composer and draw polygon in Composer?

2015-03-13 Thread Lene Fischer
Hi Richard and Alexandre,
Thanks –
The scratch layer is wonderful – but deleted when I close the project (that’s 
–OK) so I can´t save drawings in the printcomposer.
And Save as Image – forgot that – I like the Clipping tool from windows – and 
woul prefer a ‘Copy to Clipboard’
Regards

Use my favourite plugin from Boris:

http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/NewMemoryLayer/

activating this one, gives you a 'create new memory layer' in your Layer
menu, where you can then choose point/line/polygon and it will appear as
a layer into your map, and edit with the normal tools.
You can style it as every other layer.

(Also one of my favorite plugins)

Just to remind that that since 2.8, this feature is now core and was called 
add new scratch layer, and it's available in the Create Shapefile/Spatialite 
Button.


There is another plugin to save the memory layer into the project file.

This one is not a core feature, but works fine with scratch Layers

Hi

I have got questions from users - which I can´t answer :-O



Hopefully some of you can...



·Is it possible to: Print/copy the canvas without Composer. Users need 
to insert the canvas in a mail or a document.


Project  Save as image...



·In the PrintComposer you can draw square, ellipse, ect - but can I 
draw a polygon?


I don't know but I would just  draw it on a memory layer.

If it is current canvas state that you want to copy, you can use
Project/Save as Image to save the current canvas-view to a png/gif
whatever, which can then be copied into your email.

Myself use external tools to just grab a screenshot, which then can be
put on imgur, email whatever.

Use the save memory layer plugin for that. It will save all your memory
layers in a file next to the qgis project
