Computations with OTFR on are right... but in meters when feet would be expected (even when the proper configurations are in feet in general options/project properties). I have no idea if this is a regression since a previous QGIS version. If yes this should be tagged as blocker.</p>
<p>It should be checked also if the same happens for lengths, perimeters and x/y values.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #10966: with OTFR on $area is always computed in square meters even if the CRS is in feet (and QGIS project/general configs too)https://issues.qgis.org/issues/10966?journal_id=549162014-08-05T16:40:43ZAntonio Locandroantonio.locandro@cocesna.org

<p>It looks to me that OTF produces wrong results (even with the same CRS).</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #10966: with OTFR on $area is always computed in square meters even if the CRS is in feet (and QGIS project/general configs too)https://issues.qgis.org/issues/10966?journal_id=605422015-04-19T05:38:01ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com

<ul></ul><p>I worked with a client the other day and we were calculating area in EPSG:26916 and it produced the correct area with OTF enabled. I haven't had a chance to go back and check against another dataset. Of course if it is defaulting to square meters that makes since since 26916 is UTM Zone 16.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #10966: with OTFR on $area is always computed in square meters even if the CRS is in feet (and QGIS project/general configs too)https://issues.qgis.org/issues/10966?journal_id=609352015-05-10T00:00:02ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com
