Re: [Qgis-user] Bug reporting - data confidentiality?

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Jonathan,

The QGIS bug tracker is a public resoure.  Anything that is posted there
anyone can see, download, and use..  If you need to keep data confidential
I would not post it it in ticket itself.

If a devleoper shows interests in your ticket they may ask you for the data
priviatly if you need to keep it confidential.

There are however vervioius data scrumbbing methods you can use to fudge
the data depending on what you are keeping confidential.

Rehards,
Nathan

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS loaded millions of entries

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Tobias,

What Nyall posted is the only work around here.

> If you go to settings -> options -> data sources you can change
"attribute table behaviour" to "show features visible on map"

That means it will only request what you see in the map.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS loaded millions of entries

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hmm are you sure we don't do this already?

I suspect we do. Each provider can handle the sorting, giving to it by
QgsFeatureRequest, and hand the results back to the caller.  I thought the
attribute table was already implemented this way.

To be clear though you can have composer maps with different layers using

Re: [Qgis-user] My first weekend with QGIS.

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey John,

First thanks for the feedback. Glad to see your first experience wasn't too
bad despite the issues that you run into.

You are right that this is best sent to the dev list as that is where we
all hang out, the user email is mainly for end users who may or may not be
involved in the development.  I will forward this to the dev list for more
feedback for you.

Splitting this up into features/bugs and into the right categories is
definitely the right way to go forward but as you said sometimes it's best
to just get it out first.  To make these actionable I suggest you turn them
into tickets whenever you have the chance.

Also be aware of the iceberg issue here and that small things might be
massive under the hood which can explain why things are the way they are.
Good news is that we are getting stronger as a dev team, Qt5 is really
good, so things are getting much better as we evolve.

With that said here is some feedback on your feedback (removed some just
because I don't think I need to comment on everything, we can do that on
the tickets.):

> * Pixelated app-icon.

Known issues. Should be a ticket and a PR that will hopefully resolve it
for 3.0 and backported.

* Tool icons don’t show keyboard shortcuts on hover (tooltips).

> Main reason for this is that tooltips are hardcoded in the UI files,
however,

* Tooltips are too slow for beginning users.

So it just needs some thought

This should be fixed in 3.0 as Alex did some recent changes there.

This might be a Qt thing as we use it for handling shortcuts. But unsure

3.0 will have shortcut search. Export would be easy enough to add I suspect.

Works for me on Windows. Left will move up one and close children. Up arrow
just moves up.
This is default Qt tree widgets most of the time.

Styling is all handling by Qt and is based on OS.  We can override it with
theming but that also
has mixed results.  Just needs more digging.

See Qt comment for now.

I have thought about this before.  It's easy to do just need to work out a
good
workflow for the shortcuts that makes sense. I have thought about
Ctrl+1,2,3,4 etc but
unsure

Might be a Qt issue? Also at times if you don't parent a window correctly
you can
get strange results.

Might also be a Qt thing as some things are not exposed to use to changed.
However there
has been work to have out own wrapper to underlying OS APIs in order to
access things Qt doesn't wrap.
Might be solvable but unsure.

I think is generally a convention we should honer though the application.

If we have it all in a single ticket it's a bit easier to track and knock

Hey Lester,

After the release is a bad time to be checking. If a feature is important
to you it's best to get the dev versions early and test before release.
After the release you have to wait for a patch if there ever is one.

Re: [Qgis-user] Using aggregates functions to count intersected features from another layer

[Nathan Woodrow]

Maybe using a virtual layer query via DB Manager will work.  You have full
SQL join support. Speed isn't always the best but gives you the full power
of SQL which is the correct way to do this IMO.

E.g SELECT LayerA.id, COUNT(*) FROM layerA
JOIN layerB ON ST_WithIn(layerA.geometry, layerB.geometry)
GROUP BY layerA.type

Although you can't do an update but you can make a new layer with the new
counts.

Re: [Qgis-user] potential georeferencing changes in future?

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Simon,

There is a add point button at the top of the toolbar in the georeferncer.
You shouldn't have to enter points by hand ever really.

It will even snap to layers in the canvas

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS 2.16 - Rule based labelling

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Chris,

I have confirmed this for the dialog based editor.  If you use the style
dock to edit the rule (F7 or the paint brush icon on the layers panel) it
doesn't happen.

Report it as a bug and assign to me please.

Hey,

Just use an expression in the box:

That will generate all the different combinations.

Re: [Qgis-user] 2.8 or 2.14

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Tyler,

2.14 is the next LTR once 2.16 is release, which is in the next month or
so.  I would generally say unless you see a reason to not you should move
to 2.14.

If you have done testing and are happy to move no harm in the upgrade.

Re: [Qgis-user] shift or control to toggle zoomin/zoomout

Hi,

In QGIS:

Space + move mouse is pan
Middle click mouse is always pan
Mouse wheel is always zoom.

Page Up/Down = Zoom In/Out

Not sure we need any other methods at this stage.

Hey Andreas,

That is great to hear. Using the GPL driver is also great.

Re: [Qgis-user] Plugin processing problem

[Nathan Woodrow]

What is in {QGIS Install folder}\apps\qgis\python\plugins

e.g C:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis\python\plugins

Is there a processing folder in there?

What is in .qgis2\python\plugins?

 Yeah.  I think Apple is doing something on this front, but that is the

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS releases announced too early IMHO

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hi,

It would be ideal however packages are maintained by different people due
to the complexity of said task.  Windows and major linux distros are done
by Jurgen our release manager, hence why they come out right on time.  I
suspect in the future we will have build bots for each platform but at this
point OS X is still the outliner and requires some domain knowledge for
packaging only a few have.

They normally don't take long to be made so just hold tight.

Regards,

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS 2.14 LTR

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hi,

Just so people are aware of the process.  The count down on the website
doesn't always mean the packages will be ready on release date, that is
only the date/time that the code will be unfroozen and packages will begin
being made.  Some packages can take longer then others before they are up
on the website, OS X for example.There is no "official" release until
the banner is changed on qgis.org and announcement is made on the mailing
lists/twitter, etc.

Packages are being made and will be up on the website when ready, best
advice is to keep an eye there.  You can normally get the builds from
OSGeo4W if using Windows, however until the packages are out that isn't an
official version even if on version 2.14, last minute changes might still
need to happen.

Regards,

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS Server sometimes not sending commits to postgis

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hi,

I'm not sure relying on the QGIS cache to hold your features for you while
you work offline is a great idea, and IMO is only going to give you pain in
the long run.  Better to download the features into something like sqlite
or shapefile using OGR and then create a sync type process to push back up
after the days work.

Just working on cached WFS features also leaves you with no data if QGIS
crashes or computer shuts down.

Re: [Qgis-user] Best way to work in QGIS as 'clean install'

Hi,

There is command line args you can use. --optionspath and --settingspath
which will let you set a folder to write and Save settings to.  This is
what I use when I want a clean QGIS start each time.

Re: [Qgis-user] Label outlines.

[Nathan Woodrow]

Bob,

QGIS has had buffer options on the labels for a while now. Just add a
buffer with the colour you want for the outline is all you need.  No need
to copy the data or anything like that.

For some reason that setting is null when the plugin asks for it but not in
the options which I'm not sure why. This is a external plugin so the author
will need that handle that case.

Here are some workarounds for now.

Run this:

from PyQt4.QtCore import *
QSettings().setValue('locale/userLocale', 'en_AU')

You need to import the module and then use the settings class.

Or you can put the attached file into .qgis2\python\plugins\editablegeocsv
folder.  I have patched this file so it should work.

Re: [Qgis-user] Editable GeoCSV

[Nathan Woodrow]

That is the error.

The plugin has this line:

locale = QSettings().value('locale/userLocale')[0:2]

which is crashing because it gets NULL and then tries to slice it and fails.

Try this:

QSettings().setValue('locale/userLocale', 'en_AU')

I'm not sure why it is returning NULL but that should fix it.

Re: [Qgis-user] Editable GeoCSV

Try this (just seeing if this where the error in the plugin is)

- Open the Python console and paste the following

from PyQt4.QtCore import *; QSettings().value('locale/userLocale')

Does that return anything?  Mine returns u'en_AU'

Re: [Qgis-user] Call for release name suggestions 2015

Hey,

I think we really should just stick to what we are already doing. Run
though all the names like Andreas said, even if we lock in the release
names now.  There isn't going to be any harm in that.  If we run out of HF
place names another cool idea might be to use the place names of core
developers home towns, that would give us at least 30+ by the time that
rolls around.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGis server project files stored in DB?

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Lars,

It has been a long time goal of mine to add this as a core feature, in fact
that is why I renamed the File menu to Project a few versions back, but I
have never quite got there yet. In theory I don't think it would be too
hard but just time and effort really.

For a current solution you could always just dump them from the db to the
disk at intervals or something like that. Bit of Python or bash scripting
would do it pretty easy.

Yeah there is on going talk about what we can do here.  Maybe even killing

The progressing toolbox should do what you need and you won't have to worry

At the bottom of that dock there is a interface selection tool. Change it
to advanced interface.

Note: There is ongoing discussion on the dev mailing list on how we can
improve this.

Re: [Qgis-user] How to convert ECW using open source packages into something else?

[Nathan Woodrow]

Mainly because on windows the package is all standalone and ECW is included
in that package. So you just install and it should just work out of the
box.  I have had working ECW support since 1.8 or before, only a small time
at 2.0 where we (us developers) got a bit confused with the WCW licence but
that was cleared up by ERDAS and it's worked out of the box ever since.
The same should be for Linux but I suspect the package systems add some
complication to that.

OK ECW support should work out of the box on WIndows if you are able to use
that.  I have never really tied on Linux so can't help there.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS instalation and uninstallation issues

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey,

How about we solve the issues in the software?  This is a bug if you can't
get it to work right. Dropping the standalone doesn't solve this issue and
the standalone is used by people that need to do offline installs as it
contains a all in one package ready to go. QGIS shares settings over
versions that includes things like path to GRASS and SAGA.  I suspect this
is the cause of the issue, if you have 32bit and 64bit installed it's
pointing to the same GRASS install.

The standalone is the same package as the osgeo4w one. Same layout same

Re: [Qgis-user] Loading issues with project file in QGIS 2.4 (64 bit)

My advice would be to get a copy of the data on the local drive for her
computer and try it that way to remove any network issues.

Good thing your IT is wrong then hey :P

I also suspect network if the files are large it will pull the whole thing
over the network before it can open it. GML also isn't the most efficient
format in the world so take that into consideration.

What other layers are in the project?  If you have lots of network layers
it will try and read them when you load the new layer in order to refresh
the map, remember each pan is going to read the files to get the data.

We will need a bit more info on the project and files to help more.

Re: [Qgis-user] qgis-server vs layer id

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Burghardt,

As a workaround for now it's pretty easy to read the xml file and replace
the layer ids using Python.  QGIS doesn't care about the format of the id
as long as it's a strings so you could replace them all with a GUID if you
wanted.

Re: [Qgis-user] SQL Expressions

[Nathan Woodrow]

Double quote is a field reference, single quote is a string.  Functions
normally take a string for a field name, if you use "fieldname" that means
value of fieldname.

You don't need to use the attribute function to get the current feature
fields, just use the field name:

'output_'||  "name"

"id" ||  "name"

Re: [Qgis-user] node tool zoom problem

[Nathan Woodrow]

Wannes,

You should check your snapping settings in Settings -> Snapping.  You might
have it set to map units which means as you zoom out it becomes smaller
because it's using real distance vs pixels which are constant.

Re: [Qgis-user] Fwd: QGIS crash on loading projects

[Nathan Woodrow]

Ok give this a go.

In the install folder for QGIS there is a file called OSGeo4w.bat. Run that
and type:

qgis --optionspath "C:\temp\qgis" --configpath "C:\temp\qgis"

Both those options take a folder path and will save the settings there.
These will create a new user home and settings location in temp\qgis.  This
is good for seeing if there is a busted setting in your registry for QGIS.

Run that command and see if it still crashes.

 Hi,

 Personally this is what I would do.

 Completely purges Qgis from your system.  (Delete plugin directories,
 AND the Qgis registry keys.) Reboot.

 I would install Qgis 2.6.1 using the OSGEO install.

 I followed these steps. My install was already done via osge064w and
 uninstalling was a little tricky.
 I removed the directories and the registry entries.

 I then reinstalled QGIS via the express installer.

 QGIS wouldn't start giving an error about jvm.dll missing from my
 computer.

 I manually selected the java install via the advanced option, jvm is
 installed and in a subfolder in C:\osgeo4w64

 I suspect it's a path problem, working on this.

 I would make sure that all mapped drive are properly remapped with the
 proper passwords, I would install the open layer plugin and wms or other
 data servers. Make sure the symbols are reinstalled if you had new ones and
 also make sure the .svg symbol images are well mapped.

 If the problem persists, I would repurge Qgis, install and older
 version and try again.

 Finally, i would then start looking at the project files with a text
 editor to try to  understand the problem. I is likely the crash is cause by
 a layer that cannot be opened and that this layer depends on a plugin like
 openlayer, a mapped drive, wms servers... That would be my guess.

 Thanks Lene,
 I tried that on a 3 projects this morning with no change to the
 behaviour. I've had 2.6.1 for a while now and these projects opened in that
 early last week.
 I've also tried loading older projects that are still in 2.0, 2.2, and
 2.4 format and the same thing happens.

 Most of my projects are on a network drive and I've managed to get a
 step further by copying those project files to a local drive. I then get
 the "handle bad layers" dialog, then qgis crashes. I need to dig a little
 to see if this is a problem in case someone has moved some of the layers
 the dialog is referring to but this hasn't caused a crash before.

 Is this behaviour logged anywhere?

Yes it should. This, even with bad plugin metadata, is a bug in the plugin

Re: [Qgis-user] py2exe for windows, import qgis.core anf qgis.gui

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Robert,

It can be done.  I have done it with my Roam project, you can find the
setup.py logic here https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/blob/master/setup.py

The three main things are:
   1) Make sure you have a batch file that does path setup and call it
before running: python setup.py py2exe. You can see an example at
https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/blob/master/scripts/setenv.bat  I run this
is all my sub scripts when building, etc.  Basically call setenv.bat call
python setup.py py2exe

   2) You need to copy things like qgis provider plugins and resources into
the package, you can see that being done here:
https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/blob/master/setup.py#L82 (ignore the mess
there)

   3) You will need to do some path setup before you call QgsApplication or
else things will not load correctly:
https://github.com/DMS-Aus/Roam/blob/master/src/roam/environ.py#L107

The Roam code might not be a good example as there is a lot of other things
in there but you should be able to make your way though it to work it out.

Re: [Qgis-user] Quick query re plugins

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey,

>Yes I know what you are saying however this is the path that works as I
too have to live with firewalls and restricted access due to security
settings ( I have to run as administrator just to save updates to projects)

You should always have access to .qgis2 in your user home as qgis wouldn't
load right without access there. If you have to manual install still
install into there.

You can still do what you want of course but I just don't recommend that as
advice to people because .qgis2 is the right place.

No. Never put them there. That is the install folder for qgis and all user
plugins should live in .qgis2\python\plugins in your user folder, or else
they won't show up when you upgrade to a new version.

Old 1.8 plugins won't work at all in 2.0. We had a api break.

Hey Loïc,

Just to make you aware there is a pull request to merge chances that would
bring some more advanced drawing tools into core.  Not the same as your
plugin but still pretty handy.

There is also a QEP (QGIS Enhancement Proposal) to discuss the integration of
such features.  It would be really good to get your thoughts on that.  You
can read it and and comment here:
https://github.com/3nids/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/blob/cadtools/QEP-CAD-tools.rst
 We will be fleshing it out a bit more soon, adding pictures etc.

Re: [Qgis-user] Future change in the Python support?

[Nathan Woodrow]

Hey Ricardo,

Currently there is no hard plan to move to Python 3.  I suspect when we
move to Qt5 we will move.  Like Andrea has said this is not a simple change
as it will require a update of plugins, however it will not bad a hard or
bad update.  I don't think it would be very hard for people to upgrade when
we do.

My advice is to learn both.  They are not that different and you will be
able to swap the two easy enough.  If you only want to learn one then 2.7
is fine, when 3.0 comes as a update you will be able to switch pretty easy.

Regards,
Nathan

Re: [Qgis-user] Get layer-id by layer (not by acive layer)

[Nathan Woodrow]

layer.id() returns the id

http://qgis.org/api/classQgsMapLayer.html#a710f27dec806d3bcd5ae14701c2e6fd7

layer.name() returns the name

http://qgis.org/api/classQgsMapLayer.html#aff7fb3990b6c736fbe41643666b027e5

If you have a layerid and you want to look up the layer object for it you
can use:

QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().mapLayers[layerid]

if you have a name and would like the layers objects:

maplayers = QgsMapLayersRegistry.instance().mapLayersByName(name)

Hey Walter.

Try this:

maplayers = QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().mapLayers()

maplayers will be a dict of layerid-layer object
