[Qgis-user] RE: Create an ODBC connection
Thank you, Alister! I simply did not think of such a simple workaround. Yet, if someone knows more about how to establish an ODBC connection, i'm still interested! Perhaps it comes in handy another time.

[Qgis-user] qGIS WMS client question
Hi! I have some trouble using the new WMS client with support for group layers introduced somewhere after qGIS 1.0. It looks like qGIS is not using the named group layers in the GetMap request, but instead lists all sub-layers contained in a group in the LAYERS GetMap parameter. And for some reason the default layer order in the GetCapabilities document is not preserved in the GetMap request by default. I know that the layer order dialog lets you rearrange layers, but that is not very useful when the service consist of more than 250 layers. You could try the following service that will illustrate the problem pretty good: http://openwms.statkart.no/skwms1/wms.topo2? The service has two levels of named group layers, and selecting on of the group layers in the qGIS WMS dialog should (ideally) result in a GetMap request with the group layer(s) name in the LAYERS parameter, and not a list of all the sub layers contained in the selected group(s). The described method is used in uDig and other WMS clients, and I thing that qGIS should consider the same behavior as it makes it easier to request services with many layers. Layer structure: top group (name/title) |-first group (name/title) |--first group first layer (name/title) |--first group second layer (name/title) |-second group (name/title) |--second group first layer (name/title) |--second group second layer (name/title) and so on... example requests: Top group layer (will result in a complete topographic map) http://openwms.statkart.no/skwms1/wms.topo2?VERSION=1.1.1SERVICE=WMSREQUEST=GetMapSRS=EPSG:32633BBOX=-450399.46,6423971.38,1472547.15,7964820.62LAYERS=topo2_WMSSTYLES=WIDTH=926HEIGHT=742FORMAT=image/pngBGCOLOR=0xFFTRANSPARENT=FALSE Requesting all sub layers in default order (provided in the GetCapabilities document) should result in the same map as the above request, but thats not the case in qGIS First two group layers http://openwms.statkart.no/skwms1/wms.topo2?VERSION=1.1.1SERVICE=WMSREQUEST=GetMapSRS=EPSG:32633BBOX=-450399.46,6423971.38,1472547.15,7964820.62LAYERS=Hoydelag,ArealdekkeflateSTYLES=WIDTH=926HEIGHT=742FORMAT=image/pngBGCOLOR=0xFFTRANSPARENT=FALSE All single layers in the first two group layers http://openwms.statkart.no/skwms1/wms.topo2?VERSION=1.1.1SERVICE=WMSREQUEST=GetMapSRS=EPSG:32633BBOX=-450399.46,6423971.38,1472547.15,7964820.62LAYERS=N5000Hoydelag,N2000Hoydelag,N1000Hoydelag,N500Hoydelag,N250Hoydelag,N5000Arealdekkeflate,N2000Arealdekkeflate,N1000Arealdekkeflate,N500Arealdekkeflate,N250Arealdekkeflate,N50Arealdekkeflate,fkb_ar5,fkb_arealbrukSTYLES=WIDTH=926HEIGHT=742FORMAT=image/pngBGCOLOR=0xFFTRANSPARENT=FALSE Regards, Pål Kristensen Norwegian Mapping Authority - Regards, Pål Kristensen -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/qGIS-WMS-client-question-tp5766121p5766121.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
[Qgis-user] An idea/wish for QGIS
Hi all, well, I've been experiencing lately with QGis diagram overlay feature and I have to say that is still not enough for what I need. Plots are not very customizable, adding categories is a matter of patience when you have a relatively large amount of fields to plot (in my case, in anchovy length distribution, about 25 of them) and normalization of the diagrams is a little confusing. Anyway, it is a big feature but unfortunately at last I have had to make my maps with gvSIG what really disappoints me because map tools in gvSIG are (for me) a little bit poor. But I'have been messing with qgis new simbology and I have found very interesting the option RULE BASED (I guess this is the correct translation for the spanish Basado en reglas). Because I can define individual marker for different values (based in that rules), I've done the following: 1) I've created an bar chart with matplotlib as I want it to be (scale, ticks..., colors) 2) I've saved it to a folder in my computer as SVG graphic, say so /home/Figures 3) I've created a soft link to that folder in /usr/local/share/qgis/svg Following this steps, what I get is the chance to choose my graph as the marker of my point and I have to say that is really, really cool for me because the look of the maps is great!! But there is one problem... You can choose the graph but you don't have any clue to tell which graph is what you want, because all you get in the dialog of selection are the thumbnails of the SVG's in that folder!!! So with, let's say 20 micro-pictures to choose is not very useful... So my idea/suggestion/wish is: To add to the symbol properties dialog the possibility of loading a concrete SVG as marker, apart from the list of default markers. It will not be a feature like automatic diagram overlay but I think it is a very simple improvement that provides a solution and eases the work of overlaying charts in maps (not only pie and bar charts) I don't really know if this is of any use for you but in my case, it has been the big prize in days, because I feared of having to say goodbye to Qgis until the diagram feature is improved. Also I apologize if what I've said is just a obviousness... Maybe this is a feature everybody knows and here I am thinking that I've discovered the Philosopher's stone... :) Best regards Jorge Tornero -- - Jorge Tornero Núñez Centro Oceanográfico de Cádiz Instituto Español de Oceanografía Puerto Pesquero - Muelle de Levante, s/n 11006 Cádiz - España Tel. +34 956294189 Fax. +34 956294232 www.ieo.es ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
[Qgis-user] Postgres 9 and PostGIS layers - 1 cursor states lost
Hello, I'm running QGis 1.7.0-Trunk (rev 14747) on Windows XP, from the OSGeo4W distribution. When I try to load a PostGIS layer from a PostgreSQL 9 database (PostGIS 1.5), the loading fails and QGis shows this error message: 1 cursor states lost. SQL: CLOSE qgisf6 Result: 7 (ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block ) I happen to have the same database in a PostgreSQL 8.3 + PostGIS 1.4 setup, and the layers do load without problems from there. I haven't seen too much references online for this kind of error. Bug #3089 seems to be related, and it has apparently been mentioned on IRC already, however without any clues for a solution. Can anyone shed some more light on this? Kind regards, Arnout Standaert PS.
