Description
We have a project with 32 layers - each with anywhere from 800 - 3000 features in each layer.
We have 2 fields, an integer field and a geometry field that represents POLYGON and MULTIPOLYGON types.
If we try and export the CSV it exports just fine, however it is always in AS_XY format and regardless of what value we choose in that field it remains so.
This ability to export these shapefiles to a CSV format is a killer feature for us as it means we can export entire large datasets for use in Geospatial processing systems such as Presto and GeoSpark, I couldnt find any other tickets on this subject but I dont think what I am doing is too far fetched?

Actually my bad - I think this is more to do with CRS than the export functionality - it's still very confusing!

Can you elaborate? is there something we can do better in this case?

I don't think so in this case, I think it is more my expectations of what WKT means vs the CRS - thanks :)
