[Qgis-user] Proportionnal point for polygon

[Yves Jacolin (free)]

Hello,

The step 0 could be to choose parameters to change with the classify option 
rather to chose only one you don't want to modify.

When classify occurs, one have to change only one parameter (ie color, size, 
shape, etc.). Changing two or more parameters is not a best practice for 
making readable maps.
