Thanks Andreas. I know and appreciate (and cite often, during my
presentations) the sponsorship of Kanton Solothurn - thanks again!
Be sure I am testing it - keep an eye on the trac!
Having 1.0 preview1 packages for main distros would be an advantage for
wider testing - I can provide lenny debs for amd64 if someone finds them
useful.
All the best.

Hi Paolo,

the printing enhancements currently developed by Marco Hugentobler are 
sponsored by the Kanton Solothurn and the City of Uster in Switzerland.


Templates that can be saved and loaded as well as multiple layouts in 
the project files is definitely something that we want. So chances are 
high that it will be included in the future. It will need some time 
though. One after the other ...


I encourage people to test the new printing enhancements prior to the 
final release of QGIS 1.0. This is important for stabilizing the 
features and fixing the bugs.

When using Grass in QGIS a lot of the operations rely on you having data loaded 
in the map first. Try loading a shapefile, and make sure it's visible. Then use 
the v.in.ogr

Oh! I am so sorry for the mis-information. I remembered a discussion we

the limit of columns (256).The oss solution for that is 32767 for

Hi all.
I'm using 1.0 preview1. In the printing dialogo, the "load template" and
"save template" buttons are greyed out: anything to be done to activate
them? Or is this a bug?

Re: [Qgis-user] dbf editor for mac for grass and qgis

[maning sambale]

Andreas,

I agree with you.  I actually have postgresql installed on my mac.
But this would just be a temporary vector file (an input to a
satellite classification).  So I am looking (if there are) ways just
to make it usable for now.  I might consider postgis if all quick and
dirty efforts would be fruitless

cheers,
maning

[Andreas Neumann]

With this many records I would seriously consider moving to a 
professional database, such as PostgreSQL/Postgis or Oracle Spatial. 
Both should run on a Mac. Postgis is of course easier to install and 
maintain than Oracle. It is also cheaper.

[Qgis-user] dbf editor for mac for grass and qgis

[maning sambale]

Hi,

My usual workflow is like this:

All my vectors are in GRASS database and I view them with QGIS.
For editing vector attributes, I basically browse the GRASS vectors in
QGIS then edit the dbf attributes with OpenOffice calc or base.
So far so good.  This time I have a vector with more than 100K
records.  Editing with calc is not possible (hitting the limit of 65K
rows) and its painstakingly slow in OO base.

I'm looking for ways to speed things up.  I cannot find a decent dbf
editor for mac.  Any ideas?

cheers,
maning

if you want to use GRASS into QGIS you don't need nothing than QGSI itself,

a different version of gdal than the one contained in the QGIS release will
