Re: [Qgis-user] Sharing project files

This is more an IT problem than a QGIS problem. If your layer source files are kept on a file server then your IT people need to institutionalize those files' locations and use permissions, ownership, access control lists, etc. to manage who can write/move those files and who can only read

Re: [Qgis-user] problem of adding csv file

There are more than one online howto about adding a geometryless table to a map in QGIS that say to do it as a vector layer; that guidance is obsolete. "Add Delimited Text Layer" is farther down in the drop-down list - that's what you want to be using. On 3/15/20 4:28 PM, Boaz Bar Ilan wrote:

Look, don't throw good money after bad. You're only going to be able to get so much memory in a laptop. If you want to do RAM-intensive things and don't have a way to make them less intensive (i.e., offloading some of the business to PostGIS, etc.) then you're going to need to be thinking

[Qgis-user] Thrashing after toggling editing off
