Hi Agus, You can get Sextante 1.0.8. It works well with QGIS 1.8. I've been using it for months now. Only issue is that it has to be installed manually because Plugin Installer always fetches 1.0.9. Anita Am 18.04.2013, 18:45 Uhr, schrieb Agustin Lobo : Victor, I know this is about >= 1

That was my thought...but for some reasons some operations are very slow from the fTools code, even if they use indexing.
