[Qgis-user] Break a line up into lines of equal segments

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi,

Not sure but I would take a file and densify the geometry 
(vector/Geometry tools/Densify geometries.) My GUESS is that the added 
vertex are equally spaced.  Then you could open the processing toolbar 
and search for Explode line.  If this is like Autocad, it will break up 
the line at every vertex.  This methods, though, will give different 
results based on the line length and the original number of vertex....  
:( I would test before using this method.

You could probably handle the problem with more precision using a python 
script... There could be other solutions out there.
Good luck

Nicolas
