Description

Hello,

I've just tried a usual option I frequently use in QGIS older version, but with 1.9 master, buffer don't work well.
First time, Qgis got freezed. Then, I requested à 200m distance buffer, and ended with something of more than 3 km...

Any idea

please add sample data and detailed steps on how to replicate the issue.

Details folowing:
I have a layer with +10 polygonal object (around 1ha). Menu Vector --> Geotreatment --> Buffer
Settings = 20 segments, 200 distance

Projet settings are ok (units = meters)

it works fine here, so please attach a sample of your data, to allow us understand if it is the program or the data or the settings.

Edit: Buffer polygone created bigger than +100 000 ha2 ... Bigger than France

please specify your projection settings (CRS + projection on the fly yes-no) and measuring units preferences.
The best help would be to give a very small datasample + qgs project reproducing the bug

Base layer attached

the prj of your shape says it is in WGS84, so the units are degrees. This is why you are getting to large buffers.

I was pretty sure to ask for an RGF 93 projection creating the shape file, but must be my mistake.

Just created another shape file, created a buffer file, work well.

Thanks !
