[Qgis-user] Adding virtual X & Y columns to a QGIS attribute form

[oisin.kelly.wild at gmail.com]

Once you have created the virtual field, you can add them to your form. Open form properties,go to form, choose drag and drop form designer, add the available attributes from left hand panel to middle panel. Right hand panel is for form widget settings. 

Hope that helps
