[Qgis-user] scale WMS layer
Hi to everyone I'm a new Qgis user. I'm trying to set a less detailed scale for a WMS raster layer (I need to use a origina 1:10.000 topographic map at 1:15.000). Is there a way to force this setting? I tried with WMS Property -General Visibility depending froms scale but nothing changes Furthermore, when I prepare a Printing with the same WMS, I usually can't keep the same scale I was using in the project. If I use 1:10.000 in the project I can' use more than 1:4500 in Printings. Thnak you very much Federico ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Is there a way to force this setting? A WMS request include a bounding box (in CRS units) and image size (in pixels). I guess QGIS determines the bounding box from the map extents and the image size from the screen (or printing) resolution.

If I use 1:10.000 in the project I can' use more than 1:4500 in Printings. What does I can't mean? Many servers impose a limit in the size of images they serve. Usually a printed map needs a bigger image than a screen one so you can see the image in the screen but maybe not in the printing. I often download several images and use virtual rasters to compose a bigger one in order to workaround these limits.
