Dear Uwe, shape-file format is a proprietary format and we sometimes observe that huge shape-files perform better (faster) in ESRI software. I work a lot with shape-files, but the problem you describe I never had. If you have ArcGIS license you can manipulate the shape-file there. If you don't

Hi all, Here is some more eplanation of the issue: http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/58101/how-to-avoid-creating-corrupt-shapefiles-during-editing/79677#79677 I spent quite some time to fix this issue as much as possible from QGIS side (Hint: "they" are not just lazy and ignore problems ;-)

Dear Saber, thank you very much for your answer. I understand that there are limitations in resources for the development. But if I have to deal with limitations, I should work on very important features first and leave less important things for later. Eg, if a BMW or Mercedes build a

Hi! While all that Nicolas and Uwe says is generally true and reasonable, it is also true that bugs and errors can be more or less dangerous. With limited resources, it is even more important that bugs are handled according to a simple risk analysis. In this case, it would go something like this: W

Dear Uwe, There are some work-arounds and solutions provided within the ticket. Also, work is underway to resolve the issue in the next LTR release. Last time I checked (5 minutes ago) it is still present in master. I totally agree with you that there should be a warning to users to mak

Hi, Generally speaking, if you save yours edits regularly, you should not have problems. You should also save multiple version of the same files with varying naming conventions as good practice. Remember that closing or saving a project will not save your edits.  You must specifically save the
