[Qgis-user] QGIS WPSclient PyWPS output data error
Hi, I'm running PyWPS service with some processes. Everything is working fine bud i wanted to try Qgis plugin WPS client and problems showed up. First thing is that my process takes a while but Qgis ends with Timed out even if statusSupported is set to True. The only way i found to deal with this was enlarging the time limit in Qgis for network. But i don't think that's the way it should work. Second is error which I get when process is done. Process returns geotiff With statusSupported=true, storeResponse=True and useMapscript=True/False (both). All these attemps ends with error: codetraceback (most recent call last): File /home/gis/.qgis//python/plugins/wps/QgsWpsDockWidget.py, line 816, in resultHandler return self.errorHandler(resultXML) File /home/gis/.qgis//python/plugins/wps/QgsWpsDockWidget.py, line 968, in errorHandler QMessageBox.critical(self.iface.mainWindow(), Exception report, exceptionHtml) TypeError: arguments did not match any overloaded call: QMessageBox.critical(QWidget, QString, QString, QMessageBox.StandardButtons buttons=QMessageBox.Ok, QMessageBox.StandardButton defaultButton=QMessageBox.NoButton): argument 3 has unexpected type 'NoneType' QMessageBox.critical(QWidget, QString, QString, int, int, int button2=0): argument 3 has unexpected type 'NoneType' QMessageBox.critical(QWidget, QString, QString, QString, QString button1Text=QString(), QString button2Text=QString(), int defaultButtonNumber=0, int escapeButtonNumber=-1): argument 3 has unexpected type 'NoneType'brbrbr/code Unfortunately I have no idea what does it mean.

Re: [Qgis-user] [Ubuntu] MrSID for QGIS 1.8 in Ubuntu Precise
Really sad. Is the problem with Mrsid the only reason why you have had to take the VirtualBox solution? Crashes of debian-nightly master are to be expected, though. So, we should all understand that the only way to use Mrsid on linux qgis is and will be that the user compiles gdal with that support?

Hola a tod@!

Gvsig no la tiene por defecto, y parece ser que es similar al EPSG 3857, y en si defecto, a otras como 3587 o 3785. En QuantumGis tampoco lo puedo hacer. Por lo que he leido, hay problemas de desplazamiento con esta proyección debido a los parámetros, datums, etc. El caso es que he encontrado una web donde se explican las diferencias entre estas proyecciones http://www.ign.gob.ar/argenmap/argenmap.jquery/docs/analisisdegooglemaps.html donde se propone una solucion para este problema, un código WKT para especificar la proyección correcta en Googlemaps y Bing maps. Al intentar meter este codigo en Gvsig como SCR definido por el usuario, me da error de código. Probé también a meter el código de la EPSG 3857, que tambien aparecia en esta página, y este no me daba error. Reproyecté la capa, y al llevarla a Qgis para superponerla con Openstreetmaps la ruta me queda desplazada unos 20 km al Sur de donde debiera estar. He consultado mas Webs, pero no obtengo la solución. Alguien podría echarme una mano? Es la primera vez que lo hago y no encuentro salida Muchisimas gracias!!

You can use OGR creation options. In the 'Save vector layer as...' dialog, use the 'OGR creation options - Data source' text edit to write the following: NameField=your_attribute Then export to KML and load your layer in Google Earth. The name of the placemark should correspond to the one in your attribute. See the OGR formats page for KML [1] as a reference.

[Qgis-user] New Icons - difficult to read
Hi I´ve installed the weekly build version of QGIS, and now been working with this version for a while. But I still find it very difficult to use the new icons. At first it was of course a task to learn the new pictures, I had to read it every time. But today one of my students - which is a new user - said to me: It´s difficult to differ because there is no colour on the icons. And thats correct - before I could say Find the blue globe or Find the green grass with white paths. This may sound foolish - but it worked. Now I don´t have any colours to recognize the icons. Of course I could just use the old icons - but this not an issue when I give lessons and all my students use the built in icons. Is it only me who has this problem?

Hi I do have exactly the same problem. E.g. I almost cannot see any difference between the WMS/WCS/WFS icons except on a very tiny part of the icons whereas the old icons were easy to distinguish. But this is perhaps I'm getting old... and I got used to the old icons. I guess I will not learn the icons but just the position I can find them.

But today one of my students - which is a new user - said to me: It´s difficult to differ because there is no colour on the icons. And thats correct - before I could say Find the blue globe or Find the green grass with white paths. This may sound foolish - but it worked. Now I don´t have any colours to recognize the icons. Of course I could just use the old icons - but this not an issue when I give lessons and all my students use the built in icons. Is it only me who has this problem?
