Hello

I am fairly new to QGIS - is it possible to add point symbols to the 
system?

With thanks,  Terry

Yes, I think you just need to copy them in qgis_install_dir/svg/ folder.
If you have good point symbols, maybe you would like to share them with
other QGIS users and include them in source code ;-)

Carlos - I am a user rather than a programmer, this looks more the 
inner working of a build file, perhaps there could be a folder in the installed 
QGIS for symbols

Recently I printed a QGIS file as a PDF then open the file in Inkscape 
and the point symbols were bitmaps rather than vector, this surprised me

...not sure how good my graphic skills are at the moment!

A thought for the future - add a repository to the QGIS web page for 
shared point symbols

[Qgis-user] Point Symbols in original size

2009-03-09 Thread W.Schanz
Hi all,

I want to display a point layer (shape-file) with point symbols in their
original size. Unfortunatly if I set the points symbol size in layer
properties this using pixels instead of map units (e.g. m).
Is their a possibility to change this behaviour?
Thanks in advance

Wolfgang
