On windows the OSGeo installer at this point installs an older version of Shapely, so the plugin won't run. To get it to work have a look at this thread for some tips: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/Profile-Tool-td6745484.html On Linux, you should be able to download the tarball, unpack it and run: python setup.py install from inside the Shapely-1.2.x directory.

You can use the Query option from the Layer menu to determine which points will be displayed, including their labels.

Import shapefiles directly with Spatialite tools or with Spatialite-gui. 2. Use ogr2ogr first with options ogr2ogr -f "SQLite" -dsco SPATIALITE=yes -lco SPATIAL_INDEX=no temp.sqlite source_data 3. Clean up the temporary spatialite database with Openlite utility by creating a new empty database and copying the tables from the temp.sqlite into it. Spatialite=yes option needs gdal 1.7.0 or higher http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_sqlite.html The troubles with Spatialite databases created by ogr2ogr are not very big. Some foreign key constraints and triggers are not OK which makes it harder to make properly working spatial views into database etc. For simple read-only access to the tables the databases created with ogr2ogr are OK. ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

[Qgis-user] RE: [Qgis-community-team] Problem changing a shapefile's coordinates
After reading all the answers and re-projecting to 4326 from the original .shp file (using save as..), i think that my problem is the projection of my .tiff data, because all my files in WGS84 projects at approximately the same coordinates (-92,35 as Brad said) but my raster file of the same area is at (25,35), so if i want to project all files at this CRS i have to "move" somehow my .tiff file at the above coordinates (and not the opposite as i was trying so long), am i right or wrong? Is there a way to change the coordinates that my tiff projects? I tried "on the fly" and by specifying the 4326 CRS from the file's properties but that doesn't changed anything, 25,35 remains.

Re: [Qgis-user] File-based Mastermap
Thanks for the flurry of responses folks. There's an interesting variety there. SpatiaLite would probably be the optimal solution; FME does have a reader/writer for it "SQLite Spatial(FDO)" plus "SQLite Non-spatial", though I'm not clear if this is the same thing as "SpatiaLite". However, it's not a format I'm familiar with (definitely going to have to look into it though), and because I need simplicity first and foremost, I've used Jason's "create spatial index" which worked great.

Re: [Qgis-user] File-based Mastermap
Perhaps you could also look into SpatiaLite. It comes without the limitations of Shapefiles (column names, file sizes) and is fast and a database without installation (file based). Also you need to copy only one file instead of multiple ones. SpatiaLite is not yet supported by FME (will be supported from FME 2013 on I heard) - but you can use ogr2ogr for file translations. I believe the new DB-Manager Plugin from the last Google Summer of Code can also assist in converting data from Postgis to SpatiaLite, but I am not 100% sure.

Re: [Qgis-user] [Off-Topic]Tips on buying a new laptop
I would mainly make sure you have enough RAM and an OS that can benefit of the additional RAM. I would recommend at least 4GB RAM, better 8. Linux 64bit should be able to use the additional RAM, the Win32 QGIS cannot use more than 2 or 3GB. As far as I know there is no 64bit Windows version available. If you can afford the SSD it certainly helps. I have a new Macbook Pro with a SSD running on Ubuntu 64bit. It is very fast, but expensive.
