Re: [QGIS-Developer] Geopackage FID columns: i HATE them!!!!

I used to frequently get errors when copying and pasting features across geopackage files. So now, before saving the edited file, I select all features and set the fid to NULL, which avoid errors most of the times. On Fri, Mar 20, 2020 at 5:07 AM Alexis R.L. wrote: > Greetings, > > Personnally

Greetings, Personnally when splitting layers and when there are FID conflits, I try to solve it manually. Sometimes it tells me that the fid of feature x cannot be change, which are not indistinguishable. And the next time you open the geopackage there is a change that the fid column will now be

Hi Tomas, The way trust option works is not enough for big databases and big project with more than 100 layers. It is what Michaël and I experiment. Then the problem with changes data is more about the layer extent. For example a natural observations layer is designed to accept data on a

I agree, so in my algorithms working with geopackage I always redefined  FID with options = QgsVectorFileWriter.SaveVectorOptions() options.layerOptions = ['FID=id'] For me it is like a primary key in PostGIS, I need to manage it. Other point, Feature ID in QGIS is still a short integer.

I agree. If there is an ID that is used internally as a unique primary key it should never be shown to the user. It should not be expected to be edited outside of the provider's control or be stable between edits. If you need a stable ID for reference you should make your own {{insert rant about
