Description

When I create grids with ftools, and then are added to the canvas, they seems to miss lines, but only at small scales. Zoom in and the problem goes away.

See attached image.

History

#1 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago

Maybe is not a ftools problem, maybe is a MapCanvas one. Reassign at wish to the proper component.

#2 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago

I finally tested a grid that wasn't made with ftools and as the behaviour confirms it isn't definitely a ftools problem.

Changing the title and the component.

still true on the lastest trunk code, but it seems to happens only on polygon vector grids, now on line grids I cannot reproduce the problem.

using the symbology-ng? In my current example I can make a line disappear by switching from symbology-ng to the old implementation.

No, I'm pretty sure that the tests I made were done not using the new symbology.

It confirms my first observations. If you transform this polygon grid into lines it all shows fine.

with the new symbology things get better, nevertheless at low scales the grid appears not regular (see attached image). Zooming in it turns quickly into a correct spacing.

#9 Updated by rburhum - about 14 years ago

You are correct lutra in the fact that the error only occurs in polygons and not lines.

This error also occurs in version 1.0.2-Kore (what I am using on Windows).

The problem for me here is that I am using the polygons for analysis and the color is based on attribution. Sometimes, the grids will be merged by the user, so I cannot tell whether the grid was merged or if Quantum is drawing it correctly at this scale. I have to zoom or identify the feature to see if that is true. Honestly, more than a "minor: annoyance" and more of "major: does not work as expected"

#10 Updated by Giovanni Manghi about 14 years ago

Try qgis 1.4 and use the new symbology and see if things works better for you.

#11 Updated by Jürgen Fischer about 14 years ago

  • Status changed from Open to Closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

This might be the Qt issue #5213.

Gotta love how fast it was fixed. Thanks!!!
