Re: [Qgis-user] All attribute info GONE!

2017-10-04 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Merryn, A feature in (Q)GIS always consists of geometry AND attributes. So if your geometries are around, also your attributes should be around. If you delete a feature, both geometry and attributes are removed for this particular feature. If your attributes are gone, double check if the nam

2017-10-04 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi Merryn, What data formats are you using? In case you are using shapefiles - can you check if all the necessary files are around? Note that a shapefile consists of several files: * .shp --> geometry * .dbf --> attributes (perhaps this file is missing?) * .prj --> pro

[Qgis-user] All attribute info GONE!

2017-10-04 Thread Merryn Delaney
I've just got back home from maternity leave. The person who replaced me was not familiar with mapping softwares. I go back to open QGIS file and I discover that the main file and associated subfiles have been deleted. I restore them from the bins but when I open all the vectors are still there but

2017-10-04 Thread Howard Frederick

Hi Benjamin, Just to see if I correctly understand you. Something along the lines of the selective masking proposal at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/63 where one could select not only layers, but also symbol levels (symbol layers inside a layer) to selectively mask

[Qgis-user] styling to cut out underlying features

2017-10-04 Thread Fuenfer-Koenigstein.Benjamin2
Hi all, I am looking for a way to style a point feature layer in a way that underlying features are cut out by the point symbols so a raster layer at the bottom of the layer tree is visible. In other words, the point symbol should make underlying vector features transparent. Physically editing

Hi, I'm a beginner and I'm having a problem rasterizing a shapefile (which was originally done in google earth), specifically on the attribute field that cannot be selected. I tried changing all the data type in the attribute table from strings to integers. But still, it does not work. Hope you can

You can add a feature request on the Qgis Bugs website: https://issues.qgis.org But it is already possible to browse network directories (in Windows you just go to the Network area in the file open dialog and browse from there) However typing the \\servername\share part of the path is a requi
