I agree, most of the plugins are in that folder. However, for 1.8, the fTools plugins are NOT in that folder! They are contained within the application (right click on QGIS in the applications folder, choose 'show contents', navigate to something called 'resources' and the fTools and GdalTools plug

Would not be better having a version of FTools as a python plugin until all problems are solved? This would make the handling of patches much easier for users. Note that errors like this are critical for users. Agus On Thu, Aug 30, 2012 at 5:48 PM, skampus wrote: > thank you, i didn't know it w

I am having a similar problem having upgraded from 1.7.4 to 1.8 - specifically, using fTools to do an intersection between two point datasets (where the points in each dataset are exactly co-located) creates an empty shapefile with all the attributes of the two datasets, but no entries.

I have done some more testing and searching. For very simple datasets, it seems that most overlay operations work. The exception is for point datasets. I found Bug #5861 (Vector menu and Sextante -> ftools behaving inconsistently) that seems related. However, with some more complex datasets, I
