Re: [Qgis-user] Import lines from cvs

Thanks again for your help, Nicolas. In my sample, if you look closer, you’ll see that I tried both formats. DMS and decimal degrees. (see the two “LINESTRING”s headers) Both no result. Maybe the problem is that the comma’s from the cvs conflict with the commas from the nodes separator in WKT? I

Thanks, Nicolas, but already tried that: all CRS is 4326. Zoom to layer does nothing. Should I change the E and WE, N and S to pos and neg? > Op 8 jan. 2016, om 06:06 heeft Nicolas Cadieux > het volgende geschreven: > > Hi, > Are you sure you have no features or are they just it the wrong plac

Re: [Qgis-user] Import lines from cvs

Hi, Are you sure you have no features or are they just it the wrong place?  Right Click on the layer and select zoom to layer extent.  Check your CRS and make sure you have CRS on the fly activated.  Make sure your option don't automatically assign the project or default CRS  layer as your laye

Re: [Qgis-user] Import lines from cvs

Thanks Nathan,short but good proposition. You encouraged me to finally have a look at that WKT button in the “import cvs” menu. But… No succes. Tried DMS and D,ddd format, but nothing happens. The layer imports, arrears in the layer list, property table of that layer looks fine, but no features app

Thanks Nyall, I try to understand your procedure, but…: line3: “save as…”: Before doing that, I already need a geometry defined, a proces you describe later i the process. I don’t get it. line 4: "- expand out the "Geometry” group…” This is an option from the “load csv layer”, not from “save l

Re: [Qgis-user] Import lines from cvs

Thanks Nicolas, But… Trying to avoid python, as I am illiterate in that field (for now) For the plugins P2one etc, in order to use that, I need separate lines for “From” and “To” points, but I can create them. That will be my next guess, after trying the other proposed solutions. > Op 6 jan.

Re: [Qgis-user] Import lines from cvs

Hi, I think you will need to use the python console to do the job.  I have no direct  experience but if you look in the pyqgis developer cookbook and look for "Geometry Construction" you will find a reference to "gLine". With that, you can create a line with two or more points. Before doing th
