[Qgis-user] Symbolize Line with two symbols

[Bernhard Ströbl]

Hi,

and thank you for the answer. I had already tried this solution (2) but 
as I mentioned in my original mail if the lines have many corners 
(partly with 90 degrees) the second symbol is not on the line any more.
example:
symbol 1 position is at line start (position 0/0) symbol 1 interval is 
10 (map unists) x shift for symbol 2 is 5 (map units), 90 degree angle 
is at 3/0 (line bend northward). Then symbol two is drawn at position 
5/0 but should IMHO be drawn at position 3/2

illustration:

     ___1_____2
     |
     |
     |
1___|  2


if the line itself is not drawn this would look like this (guess where 
the line goes :):

        1     2



1      2

my aim is to get this (which at least approximates the line):

        1    2

     2

1
