<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'><font face="Courier New" size="2">I'm working with conflict data, and because of escalation (e.g., kidnappings, bombings and insurgent attacks can lead to full-scale territorial disputes), temporal point features can become stacked. I was initially trying to figure out a way to highlight a record within a selected set in the attribute table and zoom to that point without loosing the original selection, but the Advanced Filter may be the best way to handle that. As I was panning the map, though, I noticed some locations that should have been selected from my query, and upon inspection, realized they were stacked points. Evidently t</font><font face="Courier New" size="2">he points on top prevented me from seeing the selected ones underneath. Even using the point displacement renderer (which is a pretty slick tool, btw) the selection was still hidden in the original point stack. Should I not be able to see my selections on the map canvas in relation to my other point data or is there a setting or trick here that I'm missing?</font><BR><font face="Courier New" size="2"></font> <BR><font face="Courier New" size="2">I'm a relatively new QGIS user, so please take that into consideration. I'm sure this has been discussed before, and I did some online searches but came up with very little. I did find <a href="http://hub.qgis.org/issues/4553">this</a>, but nothing related to point selections or how those would be affected by feature request changes. If I missed a solution, I would greatly appreciate a nudge in the right direction, but perhaps the development community is still reviewing how best to handle this...</font><BR><font face="Courier New" size="2"></font> <BR><font face="Courier New" size="2">Win 7 x64 SP1</font><BR><font face="Courier New" size="2">QGIS 2.4.0 (x64 standalone installer)</font><BR><font face="Courier New" size="2"></font> <BR><font face="Courier New" size="2">Thanks in advance for any feedback,</font><BR><font face="Courier New" size="2">James</font><BR> </div></body>
