<p>Hi Nicolas,<br>
</p>
<p>Yes - but that doesn't magically turn a "non geometry" table
into a "geometry table" - as far as I know. So you probably
need to create a "Virtual Layer" and create the geometry
similar to what you propose.<br>

<p>Hi</p>
<p>Neither GeometryGenerators nor Vector Field Markers
work on tables without geometry, unfortunately. You
didn't inform us, that you don't have geometry in your
table.<br>
</p>
<p>You can, however, create a "Virtual Layer" and write
some SQL to create a geometry from your attributes:
menu "Layer" --> "Create Layer" --> "New Virtual
Layer" - where you can use your existing tables and
create a new geometry column with SQL. See <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/user_manual/managing_data_source/create_layers.html#creating-virtual-layers"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/user_manual/managing_data_source/create_layers.html#creating-virtual-layers</a></p>
<p>Or, if your table is a CSV file, then you can assign
attribute columns to a point geometry and then just
hide the point rendering if you don't need it.<br>
</p>
<p>This is an unfortunate limitation of QGIS, that there
is no "easy" way to add a geometry column to table
that doesn't have geometry (or if it is possible, then
I don't know it).</p>
<p>Hope this helps you,</p>

Yes - you can use Geometry Generators for
