Description

When moving my project to other folder, I always have to manually edit the QGS file or I have to specify location for each single layer when loading the project although I have them all in one folder.

Would be perfect to have support for relative paths or at least a dialog like "Load other layers from the same location? Yes/No"

thanks much and good luck

relative paths are already supported in qgis trunk. Under windows you can install it with the osgeo4w installer.

Hm,
I am offline at home so this is problem. But someone compiled the 1.5 Trunk c5b9aa5d (SVN r13289) and it behaves in the same way as 1.4 Enceladus. Are you sure, that this was solved in later revisions?

thanks

relative paths are optional: Settings/Project Properties/General/Save Paths

BTW this is a duplicate of #1211
