[Qgis-user] Uggly legend and blocked symbols in QGIS 0.9
Hi, I'm a frequent user of Qgis. I worked with 0.7 and recent upgraded to 0.9. In 0.7 printing of maps was fine with a nice legend and smooth symbols (in both *.svg and *.jpg images). However in 0.9 I get a uggly legend - wich is kind of acceptable with only a few font types - and a picture with very blocked dot-symbols (as in old low resolution bmp-images). If I use scaling of symbols it gets a little bit better, but doesn't compare in quality with Qgis 0.7. What I'm I doing wrong? I thought that the printing of maps should be better in 0.9? I 'm running Qgis from the binary deb-package under Linux (Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon). Thank you and grtz.

[Qgis-user] QGIS an American product ?
Hi All, I just read from a local bulletin that QGIS was mostly developed by American developers. Looking at the list of developers and contributing developers for QGIS and also the list of commercial support entities, I don't quite see a domination of Americans. I'm not trying to spur a flamewar here. I'm just a bit surprised a project like QGIS is being tagged as American when it mostly appears to be an international project, like all large successful FOSS projects, but maybe it *is* and American-led project? TIA, Yves Moisan One day maybe we'll get rid of flags ... (It's pretty awkward compared to Lennon's Imagine lyrics :-) ) ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.qgis.org http://lists.qgis.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS an American product ?
Where did you read this (URL?)?? QGIS has never been promoted as an American product. It was founded in the US but if you look at the commits to the source repository, there are more international developers than US. Its success is the result of global effort by developers, contributors, and supporters. I believe this is just an unfortunate characterization by someone who may not have all the facts. -gary On Oct 31, 2007, at 5:00 AM, Yves Moisan wrote: Hi All, I just read from a local bulletin that QGIS was mostly developed by American developers.

Gary Sherman a écrit : Where did you read this (URL?)?? Hi Gary, I'm not gonna tell you ;-). I'll tell the person directly so he can correct the article. I believe this is just an unfortunate characterization by someone who may not have all the facts. That's also what I thought but I wanted to check with the QGIS community first.

Re: [Qgis-user] GHydraulic plugin, calculate economic diameters
Craig Leat wrote: The Windows installer tries to look up the QGIS installation path from the registry (location of the uninstaller). I forgot to mention this. So people who have not used the Windows installer for Quantum GIS might experience some problems. In this case, you can specify the installation location on the commandline. For example: ghydraulic-setup-2.0.0.exe /D=c:\Quantum GIS\python\plugins I'm not sure what effect this will have on the hard coded paths mentioned above, but I will try it out and report back I tried specifying the path on the command line like so: ghydraulic-setup-2.0.0.exe /D=c:\QGIS_0.9.0_26.10.2007\python\plugins and received an error saying that QGIS is not installed. Perhaps you meant to say that the switch /D is used to supply the path to QGIS? Anyway, tried this and still can't load the plugin.

[Qgis-user] No data found
Hi All, I'm experimenting with PostGIS layers with mitigated results. I have a shapefile that I uploaded into PostGIS using shp2pgsql with the proper SRID. The database I created to hold the table has Win1254 encoding. When I load the shapefile directly in QGIS, I can see my attributes with identify. When I load the same file this time from PostGIS, I can't see any info about my attributes (Aucune donnée trouvée that is No data found at the point where you cliked in the active layer). The polygons of the PostGIS table overlay perfectly the shapefile layer, so I know the data in PostGIS has been uploaded correctly. I also know the attributes are there because I can view my PostGIS layer attributes using uDIG. In fact, I saw the attributes once in QGIS but I can't see them since then. I tried closing QGIS and opening it afresh with just that layer (to be sure no other SRID would come into conflict) but I still can't see any attributes. Did anyone experience something similar ? I'm on 0.9.0 on win XP. The version I have I grabbed from some developer website several days before I saw the formal announcement, so could it be that I have a non official version ?
