Luca (or anyone else who wants to tackle this change),

Please shoot me an email before starting work on this - I can send some
pointers on the correct way to implement it which would be acceptable for
merging.

Cheers,

I totally agree with you :-) and please let plugins to do to it
programmatically, too!

Re: [Qgis-user] FW: Print a map with selected features?

2014-09-24 Thread Andreas Neumann
You can say the opposite:

People select some features. Then they move to printing without
remembering that they selected some features in some layers.

Don't you think that people are surprised that some features print in a
different color?

If you want this feature back you have to integrate this functionality
as an option - not as default.

Unfortunately it is too late now for the next edition (2.6), since we
are soon in feature freeze. After that I agree, such an option would be
useful.

"would be" for who? have you done a poll? :-)

To reproduce this feature you has to:
 1) create a shapefile
 2) copy & paste feature
 3) style the shapefile
 4) print it

that's a 4x work, before was sufficient to select a feature and amen...

for me QGIS work should be simple, users doesn't want a new GRASS...

Hi,

As Nathan said - this worked in older QGIS versions by accident and
probably was a bug.

People would be very surprised if selections would show up in print by
default.
