Okay, that looks interesting. Does not seem to produce an Atlas type of output but does seem powerful nonetheless in different ways. Thanks again... Cheers . . . . . Spring Samsung Tab 4 On Mar 18, 2018 12:05 PM, wrote: > Hi, > > More about the report system at https://north-road.com/2018/ >

Okay, thanks Andreas. I appreciate your advice. It sounds like the reporting mode does not replace the atlas, is that correct? So maybe the atlas feature in both versions is the same? I don't know if I need the reporting mode for multi-page maps. And regarding the versions, not sure why one would

About your other question: QGIS 3 also contains the Atlas mode from version 2.18 - but the reporting mode exists in parallel to the normal layout and atlas printing. So you have more choice. I am not experienced with the reporting mode until now - but I will definitely try it soon. Andreas O

Hi, You can easily install QGIS 3 in parallel with QGIS 2.18. They have separate settings, plugins, etc. - no need to fear an upgrade. They only thing you probably can't do is opening a 3.0 project in 2.18 - esp. if you use new features of version 3 that haven't been available in 2.18. The

Thank you, but no I haven't. I'm very leery of upgrading, especially when I read all the sad stories how about components not working and installations going sideways. If this upgrade to Windows 7 is Bulletproof, maybe I'll give it a try. I have always been confused by the plethora of installation

Hello All, I am able to create map books using the Atlas feature but do not need the title block (text box) on every page. Is there a method to control the content of each page (as in Manifold GIS?)? Thanks very much . . . . Cheers . . . . . Springfield Harrison _
