Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS project templates and PostGIS connections

Hi Frank, in our city administration we have many QGIS projects, that are used by a number of different users and includes PostgreSQL-Connections. The way we handle this is that every user creates an authentication configuration with the same id. If you have only one PostgreSQL instance or if u

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS project templates and PostGIS connections

Hi Frank, There are several options. That's the problem. I use pg_services. Every user has his own pg_service file, with their credentials. Project templates (and common styles) are stored in one specific database, that everybody can read. All Postgis layers are referenced by the service n

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS project templates and PostGIS connections

Hi Frank, you can safely use a custom authentication ID for the connection (choose something easy to type), then instruct your users to create an authentication configuration with the same ID but with their own credentials. This could be automated at the company level with a custom python init sc

Hi, The GDAL/ORG library works with Open Design Alliance Teigha library. They have a support for R13-15, R2004, R2007, R2010, R2013 and R2018 but since Autocad is a closed format, then all of this is basically the result of  reversed engineering.  DXF is an open format so that is easier to de

[Qgis-user] Recognize and apply custom CRS automatically

Hi, I have loads of historical maps which are georeferenced by using ground control points in a few different custom coordinate reference systems. I have saved each CRS into QGIS as custom projections. Everything works otherwise OK but each time when I open the map I must select the CRS of the

Re: [Qgis-user] importing dwg/dxf

Hi, We regularly have these issues, architects and civil engineers love their local coordinate systems. If it's engineers, they usually do have a transform available, as they need it to set out their site, but architects have no clue... And then you get the weirdos who trim random digits off the r
