[Qgis-user] how to get rid of points and only show labels?

[McDonaldR]

Hi Bob, Burghardt

You have to change the symbol style to "rule based" and then there is the option to turn off the symbol for the point.  The option is not available when using a point styled with "single symbol"

Regards

Ross

Hi Andreas,

hm, in which QGIS-Version you have made this screenshot :-)? I work with QGIS 2.12.1, where it can't find that option button.

Hi Bob,

It is much easier - you don't have to fuss around with zero size or transparency.

Just uncheck the "Symbol" checkbox and your symbol will disappear. See attached screenshot.
