Re: [Qgis-user] mobile gis and geotag on pocketpc?
Thanx all I installed gvSIG Mobile (the download with PhoneME Virtual Machine included) and it seem to run OK, found some satellites and could load simple shape files. JPG, TIFs etc didnt load, looks like one have to export them from gvSIG desktop to gvSIG Mobile, will try that. No Perl on the Ipaq (to my knowledge). Will synchronise clocks (lol) and try to use the gps tracklog for the tagging on the desktop. And then have a go with Peter Ersts exif data provider. Will be fun. / Fafner -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/mobile-gis-and-geotag-on-pocketpc--tp2666829p2674464.html Sent from the qgis-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Re: [Fwd: Re: [Qgis-user] Assigning a keyboard shortcut to a plugin]
So this is possible in a plugin? Kewl! Slightly off-topic, would it be nice to create a plugin for customizing key-bindings of QGIS functions? Some functions have shorcut keys while others don't. One of the toolset that can greatly benefit are the navigation (zoom and pan) and digitizing tools (toggle to edit, add vertex, move vertex, etc.). With the ever increasing monitor screen size, I find it cumbersome to move and click the mouse just to call a certain function.

Re: [Qgis-user] Multiple Symbolization Rules per Layer
Hi Agus, while I agree that your suggestion makes sense and would help for many purposes, in my case it wouldn't help. What I wanted to do is to style line elements according to three different attributes. In my case I have to handle the waste-water network. * Attribute Utility should define the line-color * Attribute accuracy should define stroke-dashing * Attribute hierarchical_function should define stroke-width You cannot solve this problem through multiple loading of the same layer. The only current way is by concatenating the three attributes into a single attribute and than style all the combinations. Of course this can be quite a lot of work and not very elegant if you have a lot of combinations. If you have three distinct values for every attribute, you already have 27 different cases to handle.

[Qgis-user] Data-defined rendering of rotated ellipses
Hi again, For my same waste-water project I need to render ellipses based on attributes. Two attributes define the two-half-axis of the ellipse, another attributes define the rotation. These ellipses represent manhole points in the waste-water network. I know how to define the rotation of symbols - but is there a way to render ellipses based on the two half-axis? Are there any ideas? If not - I think I will create SVG symbols and classify the different sizes into different ellipse-symbols and apply the rotation.

It would be surely nice to have these features... The new generation symbology I'm developing doesn't include neither of them, but I'm trying to keep it extensible so such addition in future would be possible.

I am not really a GUI-friend but certain tasks need a simple, clean and functional GUI (e.g. theme changer - would be nice to have). Anyhow, in the case of manage-R I think it is (currently) enough to have a more functional CLI (i.e. the features that, as you wrote, are comming - can't wait :-). If my head generates more ideas I'll post them. For example a quick idea: Let's say that by hitting Ctrl+K (or any other key) you get on the top 10 lines a permanent text-body which won't scroll-away as you run your code, scroll up-N-down, etc. There you can put... well, whatever might be needed from a user: usage shortcuts, etc. Kindest regards, Nikos --- Just for the records: I use a lot the JGR [1] to work with R. I like the separation of the Console (command line interface) and the Response panel (aka output) as well as the extra Editor window. You can play with multiple scripts/code, edit and save your code, run only selected code from the Editor window (though run one line at a time is missing) and more. But somehow, this Java-App makes my machine like a Rocket about to launch! In addition, the missing direct-communication with QGIS (which manage-R offers) is not attractive for QGIS users. --- [1] http://jgr.markushelbig.org/JGR.html ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Certainly at some point. But I think that the trac is actually not easily followed by users. Actually, what I'm doing now is the other way around: I'm incorporating to a newer page all the tickets labeled as improvements + those currently listed in my page and including the link to the ticket. The idea behind all this is that ideas for enhancements must be discussed and agreed upon by users before they become tickets. Hopefully users should also establish priorities.
