2013/10/14 chingchai humhong chingcha...@gmail.com: Hi QGIS User How to display label only selected features in QGIS 2.0 That is not possible AFAIK. As a workaround you may save the selection as a new layer, label it and remove the symbol. There might be better ways depending on selection criteria, type of storage, etc. Goyo ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

However, there are new tools in QGIS 2.0 to help show only the labels you want. Depending upon your desired workflow, consider using 'Show Label' data defined option (under Vector Layer Properties Dialog - Labels - Rendering section). You can map an attribute field for your layer, or define an expression. [Show Label data definition description] Expected input:bool [1=True|0=False] Valid input types: string, int, double If not using an expression, but instead mapping an attribute field, you can then either edit the attribute table accordingly (e.g. create a selection and update existing field values using the Attribute Table Editor), use the Show/Hide Label tool, or toggle the check box in the Change Label Properties dialog. Manipulating the attribute table allows for different expressions to be applied, while the Show/Hide Label allows you to interactively work with the labels on the map canvas: [Show/Hide Labels tool tip] Click or marquee on feature to show label Shift+click or marquee on label to hide it Acts on currently active editable layer Regards, Larry Shaffer Dakota Cartography Black Hills, South Dakota thank you -- Chingchai Humhong (chingchai by famous) Regional Center of Geo-Informatics and Space Technology, Lower Northern Region Naresuan University Phitsanulok 65000 Mobile: 08-4624-6278 Blog: http://nu-gis.blogspot.com Website: http://www.map.nu.ac.th http://map.nu.ac.th/ Website: http://www.cgistln.nu.ac.th http://www.cgistln.nu.ac.th/web/ ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
