Re: [Qgis-user] Actions HowTo
Hi,
This is what I call a great group of exchange : I am impressed by your
reactivity.
So thanks for your answers. Nathan Woodrow gave me the way, it works fine. I
just do not have the use of windows (usually using Linux) and had no knowledges
about this cmd comand.

Hi Denis,
Importand ist, that if you have spaces in the folder names, you have to use the
double quote (") at the beginning and the end of the string.
Like the example from Nathan:
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe"
"http://ficheinfoterre.brgm.fr/InfoterreFiche/ficheBss.action?id=%indice";

This one is not particularly complex, but I think it would be good to include
in standard tutorials or the user manual, as a lot of people would find it
useful:
With the new tools to run an action directly when clicking on a feature, you
can reimplement the functionality of the showhideimg plugin (and the old
"raster catalog" plugin?).
1) When you have a lot of raster layers spread over a wide area, build an index
polygon layer with a polygon each raster extent, and the raster filename / path
in an attribute field. You can do this using gdaltindex (in QGIS
"Raster>Miscellaneous>Tile index").
2) Set up an action something like this (I'm using the syntax for QGIS master):
qgis.utils.iface.addRasterLayer('[% "location" %]',os.path.basename('[%
"location" %]'))
Now when you use the action tool it loads the raster image for the location
that you click.
There are two issues though:
(a) If there are overlapping features, the built-in "Run feature action" tool
in QGIS master only runs the action for the first feature found (#5126).
Similarly, the "hotlink" plugin only runs one action on one feature each time -
but at least it lists all the possible actions, so you know that there are
overlapping features.
(b) Unfortunately, if "Settings>Options>General>Add new layers to selected or
current group" is not set, or the tile index is not in a group, then QGIS
always selects a new layer when it is added. So unless you set that option and
put the tile index in a group, if you then want to load raster images for
another location (perhaps an adjacent tile) you need to click on the tile index
layer before using the action tool again.
I'm filed http://hub.qgis.org/issues/5125 about this inconsistency, but I'm not
sure which behaviour is intended. If QGIS *is* intended to automatically
select new layers when they are added, then I guess it wouldn't be too hard to
write an action that would load the raster layer and then select the index
layer again.
The other feature of the showhideimg plugin is that if you click in the same
area again it turns the raster layer off. I guess this could also be
implemented in the layer action with a bit of work...
Regards,
Alister

Re: [Qgis-user] Actions HowTo
Hi, Well, at the moment I am using QGIS within windows system (both French GUI). I tried to set up the following action : - open chrome - open the url http://ficheinfoterre.brgm.fr/InfoterreFiche/ficheBss.action?id=%indice Where indice is a field of the layer. So I tried diferent ways : C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe http://ficheinfoterre.brgm.fr/InfoterreFiche/ficheBss.action?id=%indice C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe C:/Program\ Files\ (x86)/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe chrome.exe ... and I always get the following popup window : Impossible to lunch command Is there any trick for that ?
