What better way to learn than to write down your experiences for the
manual as you go :-) Ok I'll stop sales pitching our wonderful manual
now :-)

Coordinate capture plugin is part of QGIS core i.e. it will be in
Version 1.0 and is in the QGIS 1.0 preview releases too.

Hi

Never fear, the zoom to point plugin will be back in the official QGIS
repository once we have API frozen.

Hey if you dont advertise, nobody will know about the cool stuff you are
doing :-) I enjoyed reading your article and thought to myself 'this guy
should join our community team!'. So how about it - I am sure they will
love to have your help - writing tutorials and updating the manual takes
a special kind of talent and you obviously have it :-)

Contact Otto for more info on the community team!

Tim

There was such plugin (Zoom to Point) in the repository, but has 
disappeared... Who has taken it and when will give it back? ;-)

Not yet :( I hope we'll implement it in QGIS 1.1. Now you can only write a 
plugin or do it in the python console. See also the "question to possible 
enhancements" topic on qgis-developer:

Hi Agus.

Sure, there is the Zoom To Point plugin :-) ( Plugins > Pugin

[Qgis-user] zoom to point/edit point coordinates

2008-11-10 Thread Agustin Lobo

Is it possible to enter
X,Y coordinates and zoom to that point?
Is it possible to edit a vector
layer by entering/modifying the coordinates of a point?
(I know input from a x,y table is possible, I
refer to an interactive tool).

Thanks

Agus

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS and ECW and MrSid formats

2008-11-10 Thread Marco Pasetti

Micha,

As for GDAL, I'd expect you will want to add the support for ECW and 
MrSID directly thru GDAL, not as some separate image support library. 


Yes, correct.

Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS modules comments cleanup

2008-11-10 Thread Paolo Cavallini
Hi all.
I have finished the first run of cleanups. Only part of it went into
preview 2, so you'll need a fresh install from svn. Please test it and
let me know your suggestions.
All the best.

Hi Marco:

Marco Pasetti wrote:

Hi Martin,


In MrSID and ECW licenses they let
developers to distribute software with MrSID/ECW libraries in binary
form, so I don't see any legal problem here.


Well, good to hear. The binary redistribution is in fact the key for 
me. That because in MS-Windows we can't build applications with some 
dependencies/libraries enabled and then redistribute the application 
binaries without those libraries bundled (that is consider them as 
optional features, to be separately downloaded and installed by 
users): if built with that libraries enabled, the application binaries 
will never work if some DLL (the optional features) is missing.


If these are the facts, in my future development list I'll defitely 
add MrSID and ECW support compiling.

Just a question: do we need those supports also in GDAL necessarily?

That's very good news. It will be a significant boost to the QGIS 
feature list.
As for GDAL, I'd expect you will want to add the support for ECW and 
MrSID directly thru GDAL, not as some separate image support library. Or 
maybe I don't understand something?
In any case, GDAL offers its own toolbox which is useful outside of 
QGIS, and it would be best, in my opinion to have ECW and MrSID support 
"right at the base".


Cheers,
Micha

Marco
