Re: [Qgis-user] Export WKT format

[Andrew Gillett]

Thanks for the info. I've just tried this and there appears to be a bug 
in it. I'm using the country border data from here:


http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-cultural-vectors/

If, for example, I select Iceland and export as you suggested, the 
column for the polygon data is truncated. Only about 200 vertices are 
exported, as compared to around 3000 which are correctly present if I 
use the copy/paste method. The polygon data ends with an X coordinate 
but no Y coordinate, and the closing brackets and quote mark are also 
missing.

Hi Andrew,

WKT is a format for geometries and not a file type. Therefore it is not
possible to offer a save as WKT just like that. You can however easily
choose Comma Separated Value as export format and then choose AS_WKT in
the Geometry combobox under layer options.

Best regards,
Matthias

[Qgis-user] Merge polygon and point layers

[Andrew Gillett]

I have the country border and city data from NaturalEarth in separate 
layers.


(http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-cultural-vectors/)

Is there a straightforward way of merging these into a single layer?

[Qgis-user] Export WKT using specified projection

[Andrew Gillett]

With country border data from NaturalEarth, I'm using Ctrl-C to copy a 
selected country and paste it into a text editor in WKT format. However, 
I can't find a way to make this use a specific projection. So far the 
only way I've found to get the result I need is to first export a shape 
file using the desired projection, then reimport the file I've just 
exported and copy/paste that. Is there an easier way?
