Re: [Qgis-user] How to reproject maps of world grasslands
Many thanks Raymond: that is helpful. Now at least I know what the projection is! As QGIS has so many projections it never occurred to me that there may be one that it didn't include. I will now see if there is some other way - outside QGIS perhaps? - to convert this projection into something more friendly (so to speak).

[Qgis-user] Color picker in Processing scripts
I started an experiment to use Processing for exporting to 3d web pages using x3dom (https://github.com/andreasplesch/QGIS-X3D-Processing) and was wondering if there is some way to use a color button ( https://qgis.org/api/classQgsColorButton.html ) in a script. I know that processing script algorithms only support the automatically constructed input GUI elements but perhaps there is a way ? Probably the proper way would be to have another input data type. ##surface_color=color green but I am not familiar enough with the framework.

Re: [Qgis-user] Animal home range tool
It appears to be a toolbar. If you right click in the Toolbar section of QGIS you should see a animove Toolbar - You might want to turn it off and turn it back on to see where the button is located. I'm running 2.18.4 so results may vary. Randy On 03/19/2017 10:50 AM, Paolo Cavallini wrote: Il 17/03/2017 14:21, Tsering W. Shawa ha scritto: Dear Paolo, Thanks for replying to my email.
