[Qgis-user] export data as .csv or .txt

[Giovanni Manghi]

Hi,

if I'm not wrong I believe that what you need is already available.

Just select one/more features and then edit -> copy features.

If you paste the result in a text editor you'll get a csv file.

You can also identify features and in the resulting pop up window you
can right clic and choose many options, among them there are "copy
attribute value" and "copy feature attribute". Then just paste in a text
editor.


cheers
