Hi List, I'm trying to get QGIS to connect to an Oracle View but as best I can tell QGIS is requiring a Primary key. The problem is that I don't believe Oracle formally supports these for views, only base tables or materialised views, and creating one isn't necessarily that easy. Is it possible

Except that self-evidently the current solution doesn't work well. Of the three projects I listed, QGIS has by far the worst documentation; as Otto noted, they've not even started updating for 2.4 yet. Just looking now, not a single one of the "QGIS Geoalgorithms" that I've ever looked at (which a

Hi List, Using 2.4 I've noticed that on the "simplified toolbox" there aren't actually any tools any more. There are only Models and Scripts (neither of which is simple. And also "recently used", although that requires the user to have found the advanced interface. Is this intentional? I guess no

Hi Mick, QGIS is using a tool called GDALMerge to do the merging. An alternative is to do it yourself in GDAL at the command line. It's fairly simple. Use the "OSGeo4W Shell" link that comes with QGIS. Navigate to the directory that has the tif files in. To merge all your tiffs together into a
