Re: [Qgis-user] Crowdfunding - point cloud and elevation tools in QGIS

[Bob and Deb]

That sounds good to me.   So, out if the box, any 3D vectors that are below
the DEM will not be rendered?

Hi Nicolas,

I just noticed https://github.com/qgis/issues/32247 that was just posted
today.  It seems that Trend just updated their virus database, so there
could be troubles ahead for QGIS users.

I was afraid our IT department would blacklist QGIS.  This ticket was

[Qgis-user] QGIS has the virus Hacktool.Win64.NirCMD.SM?

Hello All,



One of our computers has been getting many alerts by Trend saying there is
an issue caused by “Hacktool.Win64.NirCMD.SM” on the command nircmd.exe.
And this is a description: of that alert:
https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/threat-encyclopedia/malware/HackTool.Win64.NirCMD.SM



Is this a false positive virus alert?

[Qgis-user] Trend antivirus detects virus in QGIS in qgis-dev-bin-g7.exe.

[Bob and Deb]

Hello all,

One of the frustrating problems is that we frequently get virus alerts
related to TSC_GENCLEAN from Trend Micro antivirus.  After a bit of
research, I see that this alert is a common false positive.  Has anybody
seen this before?

Btw, I've also seen alerts that say "Unauthorized File Encryption".  And it
seems to happen most when I either quit QGIS or QGIS crashes.

[Qgis-user] QGIS Forms and composite keys?

Hello All,

About 4 years ago, I submitted a feature request

hopeful that there is at least a way to work around this problem?

Re: [Qgis-user] Drill hole section with QGIS 3

[Bob and Deb]

In the past, I've was hoping to make a QGIS plugin to do Liquefaction
Analysis .  This analysis
uses a borehole database, ground motion grids, and historical high ground
water grids.  What prevented me from doing it was that QGIS Relations can
not work with composite keys .  So, I
hope that any work on getting QGIS to work with boreholes would address
this problem.

[Qgis-user] Dealing with tables that have composite keys.

[Bob and Deb]

Hello qgis-users,

It has been a while since I've looked at QGIS, but I'm excited to hear
about the new stuff in QGIS3.  I'm hoping that it will help me with an old
problem that has kept me from fully embracing QGIS.

If I have a table called Sample_Data with attributes (official_name,
sample_id, top_depth, bottom_depth) and another table called
Soil_Indices_Lab with attributes (official_name, sample_id, parameter_name,
parameter_value, parameter_units), and I want to use QGIS Relations using
(official_name,sample_id), I run into this issue (
https://issues.qgis.org/issues/9531).  Can anyone tell me if QGIS3 will
address this problem or if there are other features in QGIS3 that will
allow me to work around this limitation?

Thank you,

Bob

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for putting the files up on SourceForge.  I tried to checkout the

Also can you tell me if these files are still public domain?

Hi Paolo,

Maybe he should reopen http://hub.qgis.org/issues/1694 and upload the
symbols under that ticket.  That ticket is about 6 years old, but the QGIS
community is much larger, and I'm sure there is more interest in the FGDC
symbols (http://ngmdb.usgs.gov/fgdc_gds/geolsymstd.php).

[Qgis-user] Security problems with QGIS?

[Bob and Deb]

Hello all,


I’m hoping that someone can help me with a problem I’m having with QGIS.  It
seems that web services  and plugin updates does not work.  I just looked
at the event log you and saw a bunch of QGIS related events that shows that
CSAgent is blocking QGIS.  These are some of the log entries:

   - The process '\\\OSGeo4W\OSGeo4Wtest\bin\qgis-bin.exe' (as user
   \) attempted to access the registry key
   '\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\RNG', value 'Seed'. The
   attempted access was a write (operation = WRITE/VALUE). The operation was
   denied.
   - The process '\\\OSGeo4W\OSGeo4Wtest\bin\qgis-bin.exe' (as user
   \) attempted to access the registry key
   '\REGISTRY\USER\S-1-5-x\Software\Trolltech\OrganizationDefaults\Qt
   Plugin Cache 4.7.false\O:\OSGeo4Wtest\apps\Qt4\plugins\imageformats', value
   'qgif4.dll'. The attempted access was a write (operation = WRITE/VALUE).
   The operation was denied.
   - The current application '\\\OSGeo4W\OSGeo4Wtest\bin\qgis-bin.exe'
   (as user \) attempted to execute the new application
   '\\\OSGeo4W\OSGeo4Wtest\apps\msys\bin\cat.exe'. The operation was
   denied.

What can I do to solve this problem?

Hi Sylvia,

Not sure where it is in Windows, but under Linux, you can find the database
at ~/.qgis2/qgis.db

[Qgis-user] Oracle provider broken under OSGEO4W?

[Bob and Deb]

Hello list,

Today,  I updated OSGEO4W 32-bit, and as a result, I can no longer load an
Oracle layer for both qgis and qgis-dev.  I get the error message "Cannot
get Oracle select dialog from provider".  I also noticed that I can not get
gdal (which is now at 1.10.1) will not load geospatial pdfs.  Any
suggestions?

Re: [Qgis-user] Oracle - QGIS connection

[Bob and Deb]

Hello Jonathan,

How about setting the environment variable ORACLE_HOME to
c:\admin\apps\oracle32\product\11.2.0\client_1 and TNS_ADMIN to the
location of the directory that contains tnsnames.ora?  That is what I did
and it works fine.  In the past I also had to rename the oci.dll (or you
can remove it) from c:\osgeo4w\bin because it conflicted with the oci.dll
in %ORACLE_HOME%.  Btw, we are connecting to Oracle 11.2.0 using OS
authentication.

Hi Guiseppe,

Thanks for the clarification.  So, what do you hope to do with your plugin?
 The reason why I ask, is because I have some ideas that might be useful to
GEM-MT.

Btw, you might find this VRT useful for GEM-MT:

It has been a while since I had to deal with e00 files, but when I did I
believe I used avcimport to convert the e00 into a binary coverage.  If you

[Qgis-user] Sextante: How to turn of optional output parameters?

[Bob and Deb]

Hello qgis-users,

I'm using the Sextante interface to GRASS's r.slope.aspect and I'm only
interested in getting the slope and aspect, but Sextante wants to calculate
all the other output parameters.  Is there any way to get just slope and
aspect with Sextante?  All of the parameters labeled "" are
optional in GRASS.

Thanks!

Re: [Qgis-user] Proportionnal point for polygon

[Bob and Deb]

Silly me...I meant to say make the border color the same as the fill.

I want to illustrate what I'm talking about.  Currently it is a pain to:
1) Set renderer to "Graduated", select Column to classify, enter
number of classes, color ramp,etc then hit Classify.
2) double click on a class symbol to bring up the Symbol Selector.
3) click the "Change..." button to bring up the Symbol properties"
4) click the "Color" button and add color to Custom Color and click "OK"
5) click on "Border Color" and select Custom Color that was set in 3)
and click "OK"
6) click Symbol properties "OK"
7) click "Symbol Selector" "OK"
8) Go to 1) and select next class

If there is an easier way to do this, please let me know.

What would be nice is:
0) Set renderer to "Graduated", select Column, enter number of
classes, color ramp, click on a new button "Set border color to fill",
etc then hit Classify.
2) There are no step two...you're done!  All class symbol borders are
now the same color as the fill.  You no longer need to set "No Pen" on
each class (which leaves ugly gaps)

I'm not sure if QGIS can currently do this with the existing API, but
it would be great for QGIS 2.0 :-)

Re: [Qgis-user] Proportionnal point for polygon

I was just looking at a some high density point feature.  Even though this
data was classified, the black boundary of these points made it hard to
visualize my data.  It would be neat if there was a toggle button that
allows you to make the border color the same as the border color.

Re: [Qgis-user] graduated renders, etc

[Bob and Deb]

One of the cool new tricks i've recently  learned is the use of field types
in VRTs.   Take a look at some of the examples in
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_vrt.html to see what I mean.

Re: [Qgis-user] Open a NetCDF file in QGIS 1.7 - Linux

Hi Tássia,

You might want to see if gdal is built with netCDF support.  Do you see
"netCDF" when you run "gdalinfo --formats" ?

Hi Christine,
I've been working on a borehole data entry plugin.  We are using it to

Are you looking for this kind of use cases?

Re: [Qgis-user] kCube to donate 6 months of developer time - have your say!

Hi Tim,

I'm trying to figure out how to add my suggestions.  According to the
wiki, "If you want to contribute to the wiki, please create an account
and use a wiki name in the form FirstnameLastname. Before you are
allowed to edit content, you have to confirm your account by visiting
a link that was sent to your email address. "  I looked around the
wiki, but couldn't figure out how to create an account.

Thanks!

Re: [Qgis-user] Download points from Garmin GPS 60

[Bob and Deb]

I've been able to use my Garmin GPS 60csx.  After doing a "sudo
modprobe garmin_gps" under Linux, you should see /dev/ttyUSB0 should.
Use that device with qgis.

Re: [Qgis-user] Re: Quick Print with QGis 1.5

[Bob and Deb]

One wish I have is to make Easy Print work with the Openlayers plugin.
 When I use it, the Google basemap either disappears or the vectors
are plotted in the wrong place.  The same thing happens when I use the
Print Composer.  The Quick Print plugin handles the Google basemaps.

Re: [Qgis-user] Mapping landslides

Hi Marco,

I happen to have 1.5 but didn't know it had this functionality.  I
just tried it and it works great!  What are the units of the number?
mm?  Would I be able to do something like the attached pic?

Thanks for your help!

Luckily the symbols I am interested in are point features.  I just

there was a way to create custom line styles by using a simple

Hi Mike,

I just saw Alex's message about and tried the latest inkscape and can
confirm that PDFs can be loaded into it.  I was able to extract
several symbols, but a few did not render correctly.

[Qgis-user] Mapping landslides

[Bob and Deb]

Hello all,

I am interested in mapping landslides using the symbols found here:
http://ngmdb.usgs.gov/fgdc_gds/geolsymstd/fgdc-geolsym-sec17.pdf .

Can I do this with qgis?  If I can do this in qgis, I would also like
to have qgis scale some of these symbols so that they are proportional
to the size and direction of the landslide.  How do I do that?

Thanks in advance!
