Description

I have a vector layer with the country boundaries (EPSG 4326) and want to use the on the fly projection to display the map in world_molweide (EPSG:54009) and sphere_molweide (EPSG:53009) or world_robinson (EPSG:54030) and sphere_robinson (EPSG: 53030). However, what I get is countries displayed as squares. Only when zooming in considerably (about 1:50 million), the map is displayed correctly.

Reprojecting the layers, using the QGIS 'reproject layer' function works without problems.. when opening such reprojected layer they are displayed correctly, also when for example setting the project projection to EPSG 4326 with OTF.

Enter the vector properties and disable the geometry simplification, option. I just tested and it solves the issue.

Great, that worked, thanks.
