Good catch Andreas! I was also convinced that rendering was the same in server and desktop. If not, we will have to know why and deploy unit tests for that.. Régis -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Data-defined-symbol-size-is-not-backwards-compatible-to-2-8-

Hi Victor, Thanks for your reply. The marker size/rotation expression don' not actually exists, like the marker size/rotation. You can define different size/rotation expressions at the symbol level. Each symbol can have it's own variation. It's only in the particular case where the scale/rota

Hi, I noticed that my problem with the invalid scaling only occurs if I use layers from old QGIS versions (2.8). If I create a new layer with new symbology, this works fine. So, definitely a migration issue from old project versions, esp. if "scale by area" was active. Thanks, Andreas On 02

I found another issue with the new scaling method: For multi level point symbols we need to be able to define the scaling on the symbol level. However, when adding it on the symbol level, the same rule applies both on the parent marker and on the individual symbol level. What if one part of

Hi, Thanks for explaining. The assistant is very nice and a welcome improvement! Thanks for investing and working on it. I had an issue that I had a size defined in 2.8.x with "scaling by area" which, when opened in QGIS master displayed much bigger. Once I changed that in 2.8x to "scale by

Hi, here are the ideas behind this work, Nyall (code reviewer) and Vincent (author) could explain implentation choices more than me (funder): - get a more consistent UI with data defined widgets, and not "advanced fields". That way, size is in one place only. - offer an assistant on size varying

Hi, Regarding data-defined symbol size: I noticed that some of my old 2.8x projects display different in QGIS master - the symbols that have a data-defined size with a very simple CASE WHEN rule display much bigger in QGIS master than in the 2.8x branch. So I wonder, what exactly has changed
