[Qgis-user] Qgis 1.8 : How to do an Unilateral buffer

 Hi,

 the question is if you need this as a real new geometry or if a 
 graphical representation is good enough.

 In the new symbology of QGIS 1.7 and 1.8 you can do assymmetric lines 
 by specifiying a positive or negative line offset. This would create 
 your unilateral buffer graphically, but not as a new geometry.

 Would this be ok for you?

 Do you need help on setting this line offset?

 Andreas
