Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

A third (and probably better) example. Did you know that you can have more than one map object on a composer? For example, I’ve previously made a few maps were I needed an area enlarged as an inset. So two map objects at wildly different scales, and therefore different extents. If there’s a

Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

It's always a question of training and practice to take benefit from a tool or software. There are differences in concept and solutions between ArcView / ArcGIS and QGIS. For me, QGIS is really great particularly due to the integration of GRASS and SAGA e.g. But of course, it's necessary to dive

Re: [Qgis-user] Georeferencer takes excessive time

Hi, Are you using the same interpolation methods? If you used nearest neighbour normally and changed to cubic, if could take much more time for the same thing. Check the file size and try with a smaller file. Could be a very simple thing Nicolas > Le 15 mai 2017 à 06:39, UserError [via

Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

Sorry you found that hard to find. If it helps, I also have had to show QGIS to some quite non technical people. Everyone I’ve shown QGIS to found the concept of item properties pretty easy to grasp. Even the ones that needed to have vector and raster explained a multiple times. Setting up

Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

It makes perfect sense to people like us, but it does nothing for someone who simply wants to refresh the extent. I'll admit that it's not a technical question, but one of software usability. That there are different levels of users with different proficiencies will remain a fact of life. Look

Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

But there is a button to do that. UI is not my strong point. But here’s the logic as I see it. First the mantra - The Print Composer is not just the Map item. I admit that the button is not on the toolbar, but it doesn’t belong there. If you look at what is on the toolbar it’s things that :

[Qgis-user] QgisODK plugin

Hi all I received an expression of interest from a core developer/maintainer of Open Data Kit project related to QgisODK plugin. They are asking me to point them case studies about qgis and odk integration. Are you using the plugin? Do you find it useful? Could you speak about your survey? Could

[Qgis-user] Georeferencer takes excessive time

QGIS 2.18 on Linux Mint 18.1 64 bit I recently had to clean install my OS & QGIS etc. Whilst it's mostly working, the raster georeferencer is unusably slow most of the time. I thought initially it didn't like jpgs and pdfs were OK, but it is the same regardless. On clicking transform, the

Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

Thank you Ramon. At the very least, then, a separate button to 'Refresh Extent' in the composer. In ArcView it was really easy to add a button to the interface and associate a line or two of Avenue code with it. So in addition to suggesting that future versions should have a 'Refresh Extent'

Re: [Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

Hi Willem, I can give you an example of where I really, really don’t want the extent to be updated with the refresh button. One of the things I use QGIS for requires making a series of maps using two or more of a set of layers. So I can have a composer set to a wide view to give a regional

[Qgis-user] script to simplify 'Set to Map Canvas Extent'

I was amazed that QGIS doesn't have a button to simplify this critical function. Thank you Christine, I do appreciate the response. I found a script that makes a new composer and then zooms to the extent of the map canvas in the new composer, but the script is not ideal (dependent on objects
