Description

I have noticed that when exporting from a DB layer (PostGIS and SpatiaLite) with 3D features (i.e. PolygonZ, LinestringZ)
to a shapefile it has only x,y coordinates and not Z.
This doesn't happen with loaded 3D shapefiles which are correctly exported as 3D shapefiles.

Hi,

do you get any error message? How do you export? save as...? DB Manager?

I didn't receive any error message.
I did the export using "save as" and DB Manager and the result was always the same (Z coordinate is missing)
