Description

There are following values in the numeric column of a vector layer: 0, 1, 2, 3.

Go to Layer Properties > Symbology > Graduated Symbol to build a legend for it.

If the number of classes is 1, QGIS creates the range as "0.999 - 3.001". Why is 0 omitted and why is max grater than 3? The range should be "0 - 3".

For 2 classes I get: "0.999 - 2.000" and "2.000 - 3.001". Besides wrong min and max like above, I think that "2.000" should not be included in both ranges. Moreover, as the input are integer numbers, decimal numbers should not be present - they suggest different numeric precision than the input data actually have.

what data source does this apply to?

Replying to [comment:1 jef]:

what data source does this apply to?

I tried PostGIS and Shapefile - the bug applies to both.

Check with the attached Shapefile first, then after importing it into PostGIS (thanks for fixing SPIT!!!). You should be a ble to reproduce the bug with either data source.

Tested in SVN trunk f5a0a4ca (SVN r9471) and graduations run from -0.001 to +4.001. Works for me, I'm closing this ticket, please reopen if problems persist.

This bug is only partialy fixed.

The attached Shapefile has the following values in the floating point column 'nmb': 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0.

Try to classify it with "graduated symbol", one class - the data range according to QGIS is '-0.001 - 4.001'. This exceeds the actual data range which is '0 - 4'.

#5 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago

Tested now on QGIS 1.2 (rev. 10988) with the provided shapefile (one column, "nmb", with values 0,1,2,3,4).

with 1 classes and "mode" is "quantiles" qgis creates the range "0.000000 - 4.000000"

with 1 classes and "mode" is "equal interval" qgis creates the range "-0.001 - 4.001"

with 2 classes and "mode" is "quantiles" qgis creates the ranges "0.000000 - 2.000000" and "2.000000 - 4.000000"

with 2 classes and "mode" is "equal interval" qgis creates the ranges "-0.001 - 2.000" and "2.000 - 4.001"

I'm not sure the problem has been solved.
