Hi Tyler,

Would the QGIS Browser application fit your needs? It is usually included
as part of a QGIS build/package and is part of the QGIS source code tree.

Re: [Qgis-user] regularly spaced address markers on alternating side of road

2016-07-01 Thread Randal Hale

Sorry for not responding sooner but this has a lot of good information 
-> 
http://www.fgdc.gov/standards/projects/FGDC-standards-projects/address-data/index_html

There are postgis example scripts for generating points off a 
centerline. I was involved in a project that used it. My only caveat 
it's a lot of reading - but really good examples.

Thanks. I did
$ qgis numbers/chain_number.qgs
and indeed saw your line with the four digit numbers on it.

Actually I think I should avoid doing my project by hand via
mouseclicks (Qgis), and instead learn PostGIS and write "batch job" 
SQL script

SELECT points WHERE each point is at 25 meter increments from the start
of road. Then print label on alternating side of road etc.
Maybe I can accomplish the whole thing without a GUI.

I'll send this to both lists.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS Viewer

2016-07-01 Thread Blumentrath, Stefan

Hi,

If you start QGIS with the --configpath option, you avoid hacking the registry, 
as all such settings are written into the folder the “--configpath” option 
points to (more precisely, into the QGIS.ini file)
That folder can be in the users Home directory and e.g. copied from a network 
drive...

See:
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/96094/how-to-start-qgis-with-configpath-option-on-windows

If you're using the OSGeo4W installer, you could uninstall the filegdb

would it make sense to prepare a list of "featured" repositories to be

Hi,

You an try Yamaoka's tip, and I had on a Windows 'server' related
problems, and this was fixed by not using the 32bits version of osgeo4w
but the 64bits one.
Not sure if that is related though...
