[Qgis-user] Copy/paste non geometric data in QGis

[Ramon Andinach]

I can’t help, but I bumped into something like that recently 2.18.2 on Sierra trying to copy something like 4,700,000 points from a csv into an identically formatted spatialite layer.

I can offer some other observations.
1. I couldn’t copy the whole lot, but I could copy it in lots of 1,000,000 up to the last packet and then it crashed.
2. I could copy the whole thing into a QGIS temporary layer.
3. I could copy the whole thing into a shape layer.
4. I could copy the whole lot from the temporal layer into the spatialite layer.

There was an update that caused a restart, and it seemed to work after that. 

Except that it worked fine copying the whole lot into a different format than spatialite (and particularly the temporary layer) I wondered if it was a memory hang up of some sort.

When a click on the ‘Paste’ button in the attribute table window QGis crashes immediately.  I’m doing this on Mac OS Sierra with QGis 2.18.2 and QGis 2.14.10 (both from Kyngchaos).  My objective is to provide QGis beginners a simple way to load data from their MS Excel world to PostGis, where the data will afterward be processed and then displayed in QGis.
