[Qgis-user] Announcing ProfileFromLine plugin

[Ricardo Filipe Soares Garcia da]

Hello all

I have uploaded a new version of this plugin. It will display a more
meaningful error message when the user doesn't have the minimum
version of Shapely or GEOS necessary to run it.
I also added a fix for the problem reported by Paolo:

"...BTW, if I run the Profile romLine without selecting a line (I know
this is wrong), I
get an error:

Errore durante l'esecuzione di codice Python:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/home/paolo/.qgis/python/plugins/ProfileFromLine/ProfileFromLineDialog.py",
line 44, in accept
   params["interval"], self.ui.progressBar)
 File "/home/paolo/.qgis/python/plugins/ProfileFromLine/ProfileFromLine.py",
line
106, in create_profile_layer
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'dataProvider'

This should be trapped, and a more meaningful error should be
displayed to the user...."

Now the plugin will only be active (selectable from the toolbar or the
plugins menu) if there is already a lines layer loaded in the map
canvas.

Thank you for testing it out
