I agree, Unless someone actually when true the trouble of story the geometry in the database. Look for x an y columns for point or a geometry column or a WKT format. If so, you could recreate the geometry from that information. But chances are you have no such data in the databas. Nicolas

Hi Paddy, The .shp file contains the geometries. If your data contains no geometries, then you might be fine with the .dbf file that contains the no-geometry part of your data (attribute columns). No - it is not possible to recreate the .shp file if it is missing. Andreas On 2021-04-08

Hi, So, just to confirm what I already suspect? If you have the .shx and .dbf files but the .shp file is missing then you might as well get rid of them? It is not possible to recreate the .shp file? Thanks, Paddy ___ Qgis-user mailing list

Hi, In QGIS the project CRS must be the same as all the rasters crs you want to display. Furthermore you need to enable on-the-fly projection to be able to display vector layers in different crs. To display lat-lon I think the project crs must be one of the lat-lon crs. This will imply
