[Qgis-user] New Georeferencer

[Maxim Dubinin]

Hi Darren,

hmm, we're currently using new Georef intensively for referencing
literally hundreds of rasters to create Geotiffs.

It is not clear from the description of the first problem, whether you
cannot create Geotiff at all, or the problem is in "incorrect"
extension? We removed creation of wld in new Georef file as it is not really needed
when you generate Geotiff. This might be a good idea to return it
in options.

Please check out this small video as a proof that it indeed works for
referencing using corner points:

Regarding 2, I agree, this would be nice to be able to set.

Please open bug/feature requests on trac with clear explanations, if
you're still unable to make it work and suggested functionality.

DC> - I am unable to get it to output a geotiff file.  Even when the "Output
DC> Raster" is set to GeoTiff (the only option) it will write out only a .wld
DC> file.  This then needs to be renamed to the appropriate extension (e.g. I
DC> was using a .png input, so had to rename .wld to .pgw)  The pluging should
DC> create the appropriate world file type based on the output file, or actually
DC> write a Geotiff when it says it will
DC> - the Georeferencer background is now white.  This is not ideal when trying

DC> corner points, and was able to do this easily in previous versions.  Perhaps
DC> an option for background colour, or set it back to black by default?
DC> - A question--what will the "link Georeferencer to QGIS" and "Link QGIS to
DC> Georeferencer" buttons do (once they are operational?)

DC> I realize this is still under active development, so hope these issues are
