[Qgis-user] Shapefile at wrong coordinates

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi, 
Also you can look at the crs options on the computers. One is probably set up differently then other. Look for the "what do do it the layer has no crs?" On computer is probably set to "use default projection" and the others set to"use project CRS".  They should be set to "ask for CRS" in my opinion.

Cheers!
