Hi Nyall / all,
You might be interested that the Ordnance Survey documentation for OS
Features API makes use of the "render" check box in the setup when
pulling data from their API. See
https://osdatahub.os.uk/docs/wfs/gettingStarted under QGIS and search
for "render".
Whether or not this
Same here. I use this when playing with huge datasets.
Cheers
Régis

a view. With a few million points. Said layer is created dynamically, so it
takes a while to render with the default symbology.
If I can turn off rendering, I don't need to wait for
Hi Nyall,
I find it useful from time to time with complex layer rendering when it
takes several seconds or more to render a map canvas and I want to
investigate attributes currently shown on screen.
My procedure is as follows:
1) zoom at the appropriate level and lock rendering
2) open the
Hi list,
Question: are there still any valid use cases for the "render"
checkbox in the status bar? It's been around forever, and DID have a
strong use case when map rendering used to block the QGIS interface.
But is there any reason to keep this around in modern QGIS versions?
