Re: [Qgis-user] Processing - Duplicate tools for reprojecting

Hello and thanks for your comments. Sorry to not have followed up on previous replies from Paulo. I agree that we all need to sending bug reports and assist with documentation but this can be hugely time-consuming. A good example might be a problem I had with CAD digitizing tool some time ago. I

Re: [Qgis-user] Processing - Duplicate tools for reprojecting

I agree. I am all in favour of choice, but less so for duplication. I would prefer one well design, well-documented tool rather than umpteen choices, Each of which I have to try out and evaluate. I find that many of the tools are poorly documented , don't work intuitively or don't work at all.

Re: [Qgis-user] Processing - Duplicate tools for reprojecting

Hi I do not want disable to all of the packages (GRASS etc), but I think that it would improve the user experience if there are not as many as 13 tools for buffering. We should be able to reduce this and I noticed that there are similar thoughts here,

Re: [Qgis-user] Processing - Duplicate tools for reprojecting

I´m not convinced that having all these duplicates is a good thing. Do we really need 13 buffering tools? Why not try to minimize this? Having multiple tools for the same task only makes it harder for users and developers. Does QGIS have to expose all of the tools just because it is possible?

Re: [Qgis-user] Processing - Duplicate tools for reprojecting

Many processing tools are duplicates. For example, If I filter for "buffer" I find 13 results in QGIS, GDAL, SAGA and GRASS libraries. Since these last 3 are external projects, QGIS cannot control which tools are in there. And why should "somebody at QGIS" choose for you and everybody else
