[Qgis-user] Zoom QGIS to specific location by command line

[Loren Dawe]

Hi,
I would like to zoom QGIS to a specific location (lat/lon coordinate) or area (lat/lon bounding box) using a command line argument generated outside of QGIS. I have looked through the available command line arguments and cant see anything that will allow this.

Does anyone know of a method that this could be accomplished?

I could generate a disk file containing the coordinates in any documented format if that is a solution (tried to use the Google Earth plugin and send a KML file but that doesn't work from the command line).

QGIS 3.20.3
Windows 10

Thanks in Advance,
Loren.
