<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am reposting this question. I have a QGIS map saved with ".qgz" extension. This map has four layers. One layer has points, one layer has lines and two layers have polygons. Is it possible to convert the entire map to kmz without losing
the symbology. I know how to convert each layer into kmz. But, I am exploring to see if I can convert the entire map to kmz?<o:p></o:p></p>
