Description

I have a point layer where the point symbols should be interactively rotateable.

There is a rotation tool in the "Advanced digitizing" toolbar. This tool works fine if the simple, categorized or Graduated renderer is used - but fails to work in conjunction with the rule-based renderer.

Part of the problem is, that with the rule-based renderer I can only set the rotation in the data-defined settings - and not, like with the other renderers, with the "Advanced" -> "Rotation field" setting at the bottom right of the style dialogue.

I'd really like to be able to also interactively rotate symbols styled with the rule-based renderer.

#1 Updated by Andreas Neumann about 9 years ago

  • Target version changed from Version 2.8 to Future Release - High Priority
  • Priority changed from High to Normal

Settings this to "normal" priority. After discussing this with Martin we decided to revisit this in the next QGIS version - after the Oslandia work around the data-defined properties improvement (en mass mode) was introduced.
