Re: [Qgis-user] Re: Projection of Shapefile export

2011-03-16 Thread Matt Boyd 
Has there been any progress on this in the osgeo installer? I just
installed qgis on a windows 7 machine and I think I'm getting a
mismatch.

Thanks
Matt

Re: [Qgis-user] Zooming on raster maps - Identify error

2011-03-16 Thread Radim Blazek 
Hi,
are you able to run QGIS compiled with debug support?
With debug you can see debug output on terminal like:

Debug: qgsgrass.cpp: 1072: (runModule) qgis.g.info info=query
rast=align@alignment coor=69.5627,6.49715
Debug: qgsgrass.cpp: 1130: (getInfo) value:178.00

As you can see, QGIS runs GRASS-QGIS module qgis.g.info to query
values. Try to find if wrong coordinates are passed to qgis.g.info or
qgis.g.info gives wrong values.

If you cannot compile with debug output, try to verify if  qgis.g.info
module works correctly, you can run it as any other module in GRASS
shell.

Re: [Qgis-user] migrating plugins from mac to windows

2011-03-16 Thread William Kyngesburye 
Copying the Python site-packages is not a good idea as there are probably some 
binary modules (anything with a .so extension) in there that are Mac specific.  
They would need to be reinstalled with Windows builds.

[Qgis-user] Zooming on raster maps - Identify error

2011-03-16 Thread Dr. F. Patrick Graz 
Hi Folks,
I have been using QGis (1.5 & 1.6) to view GRASS raster layers, and ran into
the following snag.

When I zoom in to query the raster map (using Identify) I get the wrong
pixel value. I cross-checked the results in GRASS where the value is
correctly identified. 

I had rasterised a grid of lines (2x2m pixels). The pixel values running in
the north-south direction seem to be detected ok. The ones running east-west
are not. I assumed that there is some vertical off-set but I have not been
able to detect anything consistent. I have also cross-checked with a raster
layer with larger pixels - and there things work fine.

Any guess as to what the issue might be?

Patrick

Yes, simply zip the 'python' folder in .qgis on your machine and unzip 
it, in \.qgis\, on the target machines.


Notes (for Windows OS):
- After a QGIS installation, the folder ..\..\.qgis\python does not 
exist. It is created only when you download a python plugin.

So you will have to create it yourself.

- Do not forget the plugins in \apps\qgis-1.6\python\plugins as well. 
They should be installed by default anyway, but check they are all 
there.

Benoit

As long as the external dependencies are ok, yes.

Hi Maning,

Yes. You can do that, copy the plugin directory. The only problem is
the package dependencies (e.g pyspatialite, etc). Copy as well your
python site packages to solve this problem.
