Hi Andreas,
That is very interesting. I would like to know more about these grids

All I can see is that the proj4 parameters for many of the CRS in
North America are identical and lead to no actual changes in the
coordinate unless you are going from nad27 to nad 83 or Wgs84 which is
more drastic.
That is why I use the nrcan tool that can do transformation based
on  ITRF and WGS84 CRS.
I would be nice to do that strait in QGIS. I will look into your
method and report back.


QGIS already uses a grid shift file internally for the conversion from
NAD27 to WGS84. But there is not yet any grid shift file that reflects
newer tectonic moves, like NAD83(CSRS98) would need.



Update: You might find some grid file resources in the following document:

If you have one, you need to build a custom CRS with a link to the file. 
A sample entry would be:


+proj=tmerc +lat_0=39.66 +lon_0=-8.1319062 +k=1 
+x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=intl +nadgrids=./DLX_ETRS89_geo.gsb +units=m +no_defs


It might help to set the complete path to the .gsb file.

[Qgis-user] QGIS freezes in designer

2016-03-31 Thread Carlos Cerdán
HI there

QGIS 2.14.1
Ubuntu 15.10 - 64 bits

In designer, when I try to change the width of one map through properties,
QGIS freezes.

It happens if i select the current value in the "width" box of "position
and size" and try to overwrite it with another value, typing it.

If I change the size by clicking and dragging it goes fine.

Someone else has this error? It's a bug?

Hi Nicolas, 

That is not exactly true. 

QGIS can very well cope with grid-shift based transformations. This

Re: [Qgis-user] vector shp from NAD83 (CSRS98) to UTM WGS84

Hi, 
It is my understanding that the parameters used in QGIS for that transformation 
are not sufficient  and will simply lead to a change in EPGS code number 
with no actual changes to the coordinates. 
If you are dealing with data in the 20k to 250k (like topo maps, SRTM), you can 
go ahead with that. Difference between both projection are basically due to 
continental drift and the addition of the third dimension.

[Qgis-user] SpatiaLite - sqlite database delete

Hi all,

Very quick one. How do I delete a Spatialite sqlite database? Cannot
see an obvious way in DB manager. If I delete the .sqlite file in
Windows explorer, it still shows up in the list.

Did read that these databases could be deleted via the QGIS browser,
but did not see any way there either to delete.

Looked at QGIS 2.10, 2.12

Thanks
