[QGIS-Developer] C Hamilton Plugin Continunity

2024-06-14 Thread C Hamilton via QGIS-Developer
Hi QGIS Developers, As many of you know, I developed 12 QGIS plugins. I will be retired by the end of the month. NGA is supposed to take over maintenance of most of those plugins, but at this point in time they don't have anyone who is really qualified so I am not sure what will actually happen.

Hi Nyall, First, thank you for all that you have done over the years. You have helped me a number of times in answering questions. Open source software is an interesting beast. There is so much donated time without compensation yet people need to feed themselves. My first QGIS plugin was in 2016

[QGIS-Developer] Latest Plugin Version Timestamp

2023-12-28 Thread C Hamilton via QGIS-Developer
I noticed that you changed the plugin version timestamp on the QGIS plugin repository web pages and in part I like it, but do you really need to use decimal seconds (i.e. 2023-11-02T16:44:07.716972+00:00). This just takes up excessive space on the web page and I believe you can replace '+00:000'

I just noticed this thread. For what it's worth, many of my users are running QGIS on virtual machines. I don't advertise the QGIS 3D capabilities because it performs badly in the VM environment or not at all. Even on my personal laptop which is a fast machine with a decent video card, but does

[QGIS-Developer] QDateEdit and QgsProcessingParameterDateTime showing only 2 digit year

2023-05-01 Thread C Hamilton via QGIS-Developer
It used to be that the QDateEdit and QgsProcessingParameterDateTime would show a 4 digit year. That has changed to a 2 digit year. My opinion is that it should, by default, remain a 4 digit year. Since it has changed, is there any way to set it back to be a 4 digit year? Thanks, Calvin

We only update our LTR at most every 6 months and for some they are still using quite old versions. The only reason we might want something updated sooner would be if there were a bug that someone had encountered. Regards, Calvin On Wed, Mar 1, 2023 at 9:47 AM Saber Razmjooei via QGIS-Developer

[QGIS-Developer] How to set defaults to QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers

2023-01-27 Thread C Hamilton via QGIS-Developer
I just received a request to update the Density Analysis plugin density hash algorithms so they work with multiple layers and produce one density map based off of multiple input layers. In the algorithm I have replaced QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSource with QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers.

[QGIS-Developer] Apply style to all selected layers and groups

2023-01-19 Thread C Hamilton via QGIS-Developer
I keep having users come to me and ask why QGIS does not allow the ability to apply a style to all selected layers and groups of layers. As far as I know this does not exist. I added a routine to do this in the Density Analysis plugin, but this capability really should be a part of the core Layer

I don't know if this is something I should report or not. I keep getting users submitting issues for the Lat Lon Tools plugin on Ubuntu or Fedora because they are using a recent pyproj library and it is causing a crash. I have them check to see if "import pyproj" works from the python console

Just to let you know I use QgsSettings in most of my plugins. If you change it, that would cause all kinds of problems with compatibility to the 10 plugins that I support. Be very careful in changing class names. It can be done, but it could have major impacts. Best wishes, Calvin On Fri, Dec

Generally speaking it is not recommended, but I have done it with several of my plugins (KML Tools, Date/Time Tools). If your python package is OS dependent (not pure python) then you don't want to include it with your plugin. My Density Analysis plugin can use the optional H3 library (which I
