<p dir="ltr">Hi,<br>
All you need to do is to make  a background shp that will not move, then zoom in with the Google layer until it shifts, and then zoom out.  The shp file will help you Identify when the Google layer is in the correct place.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Then, hide the vector layer and click on "save as image".  Then load this google image back in QGIS and it will not shift as long as you have " CRS on the fly" activated.</p>

    Hello.<br />
    <br />
    Yes tnx. I don't have any problem with shp files and the measuring
    tool, only with the Google layers. <br />
    <br />
    I will have to load the sat images from another source....<br />

        I guess you are using the open layer plugin.  If so, Google
        layer go all funny on you if you zoom too much.  Vectorize a
        line in a shp file and see if the background moves.  If most

         Hello all.
          <br />
          <br />
          I just noticed that the "Measure line" tool is returning a
          distance
          <br />
          measurement that is dependent from the zoom level when I'm
          using the
          <br />
          Google satellite plugin. (increasing the zoom level results in
          a shorter
          <br />
          distance)
          <br />
          <br />
          This is of course wrong, and the question is whether or not
          this could
          <br />
          be related to my setup or it is just a bug.
          <br />
          <br />
          Tnx for help in advance.
          <br />
