[Qgis-user] Polylines not visible

[Rebecca Reid]

I’m a new QGIS user, and I’ve been running through the QGIS Training Manual. In 
Module 4.2.2., as part of creating a print layout, you add a polygon and 
several polylines to create a header ( 
https://docs.qgis.org/3.10/en/docs/training_manual/map_composer/dynamic_layout.html#moderate-fa-creating-the-dynamic-header
 

 ). The polygon (rectangle) is always visible, but the polylines used to break 
the header up into sections are only visible when selected, for some reason. If 
I try to save as PDF, they aren’t visible either, only the rectangle. I haven’t 
been able to find a solution for this anywhere so far… any suggestions? I tried 
to include screenshots to demonstrate what I meant but the files were too large 
to post.

I’m using QGIS 3.10 on a Mac running macOS Catalina.

Cheers in advance!___

Re: [Qgis-user] Mac 3.14 dmg, proj

[John Layt]

Hi,

It was being worked on at this GitHub issue
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Mac-Packager/issues/12, and thanks to a GIS
grant (http://blog.qgis.org/2020/07/10/qgis-grant-programme-2020-results/)
the first test version are now available. No ETA for final release as yet
but I'd assume 3.16 now.

Cheers!

John.

[Qgis-user] Font Awesome symbols in QGIS

[Jonathan Moules]

Hi List,

Following from the discussion about ESRI Fonts on the OSGeo list, I got 
to wondering... could QGIS include the Font Awesome symbols - 
https://fontawesome.com/icons ?


It's not actually a font but a huge set of SVG's - 1,150 in fact 
(excludes the "brand" icons, which QGIS wouldn't want), most of which 
are pertinent to mapping.


The License is "GPL friendly" - 
https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/blob/master/LICENSE.txt.


Cheers,

Jonathan

My [official] alternate build (separate framework base and python install) uses 
proj 6.3.

[Qgis-user] Mac 3.14 dmg, proj

[Greg Troxel]

tl;dr: Why does the mac 3.14 installer use old proj?


I've been using 3.10 on NetBSD (built from pkgsrc, against proj 6.3.2),
and on a mac (downloaded from qgis.org).

I have imagery data in NAD83(2011), claimed to be registered to 0.1m,
and a point feature in ITRF2014 (also about 0.1m), and I am partly
trying to check imagery registration, partly just getting used to qgis.
With the NetBSD build, everything makes sense.  With the Mac build, the
alignment of the two is different (and I think wrong).  The Mac build is
using proj 5.2.0 and probably is using WGS84 as a pivot datum.  I bet
this is using a null transform from NAD83 to WGS84 and then from WGS84
to ITRF2014, and this is wrong by a meter when transforming modern NAD83
to ITRF2014.  (I understand how this came to be, why it's been replaced
and why it gets low accuracy answers.  Regional ground motion is low
enough not to matter at the level of accuracy I am achieving so far.)

I then installed 3.14.1 on the Mac, from qgis.org, and still got bad
registration, and saw that it's still using proj 5.2.0.  I had hoped
that moving off of LTR would get me up-to-date proj.

It seems obvious to me (said knowing that's very dangerous!) that it's
better to use newer proj with qgis to get the more accurate transforms,
and that a lot of work has been done in both proj and qgis, so I wonder
why the 3.14 official mac build is using old proj, and what the plans
are for moving to proj 6.3.2 or 7.x.

I'm going to try to build qgis on the mac, using pkgsrc, which will use
newer proj, and see how that is, but I expect to get the same behavior
(that I think is right/better) because it's building the same sources as
I built on NetBSD.

Thanks for any insight anyone can provide,
Greg
