[Qgis-user] Subdivision (sections to quarter sections)
Greetings! I have a land survey, from the Texas State Land Commission, that has rectangular sections that are all over 640 acres. I would like to make a subdivision on some of those sections i.e. NE4, W2. I'd like the quarter sections, or subdivisions, to be visible and have attributes after I make them. I really don't know where to start. Ross ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
[Qgis-user] Open layers Print composer output
Hi! I'm using google satellite as a layer with open layers. It looks great! How cool! But, the PDF outputs of my map compositions is certainly not wiziwig. The images are quite crisp but I have no idea where those places are. I don't even think the output is in the state I'm working in! Could I be doing something wrong? I'm using Open Layers plugin, Windows 7, QGIS Dufour ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Re: [Qgis-user] Am I out of luck?
I was able to recover an older version of the file with my SugarSync account. I've had the service for years and have never had to use it.

[Qgis-user] ArcGIS Layer File
ArcGIS Layer File I’ve been trying to get the symbology of an oil and gas well shapfile that I downloaded from a State Oil and Gas Division into my map. The wells all show up as dots in my map, but the convention for oil and gas symbols goes beyond dots. The shape file that I downloaded has a ArcGIS Layer file (*.lyr). Can QGIS utilize a ArcGIS Layer file or is it proprietary? Is there a way the person who created that ArcGIS layer file save it as something QGIS could open?___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Re: [Qgis-user] ArcGIS Layer File
Thanks Carol! I've downloaded a set of symbols that I can use (SVG images) and I'm sure that with some help from the list I can get them installed correctly (SVG path question). SO, once I get there. Then, how do I make the text referent oil well (as an example) as listed in the Attribute Table connect to the appropriate SVG file to bring that symbol in? Can I put a path in an attribute table?
