I wanted to use the ‘does not touch’ spatial query. That works well if a single geometry does not touch (first or last node touching) but if one end touches a second geometry, then the spatial selection fails. By grouping or merging all connected lines together, then « touch » would work as the fist and last node of this new object would be identified as not touching any other object. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks everyone for your help and ideas it’s very useful. <br><br><div dir="ltr">Nicolas Cadieux<div><a href="https://gitlab.com/njacadieux">https://gitlab.com/njacadieux</a></div></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">Le 29 août 2021 à 16:41, Charles Dixon-Paver <charles@kartoza.com> a écrit :<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi Nicolas, I would urge you to try again as I was sure this would work and when I tested it I had no issues (using freshly digitized data).

For example, I ran the following on my Single parts geometries in the field calculator:</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-family:monospace">aggregate(layer:='lines',aggregate:='concatenate_unique',concatenator:=',',expression:= "idtext",filter:=within( $geometry, geometry(@parent)))</span><br></div><div><br></div><div>This initially had no issue getting all the matching line info, but as soon as I added an intersecting line, the multipart to singlepart operation splits those lines at the intersections, which results in a mismatch in the retrieved attributes.

Hi,<div><br><div>Just to clarify, I have no attribute to dissolve the lines on… so If you have as easy way to create an attribute list of all connected lines groups, I would also appreciate it. This is easy in strait python but I am making a model and trying to rely on existing algorithms.</div><div>Thanks!<br><br><div dir="ltr">Nicolas Cadieux<div><a href="https://gitlab.com/njacadieux" target="_blank">https://gitlab.com/njacadieux</a></div></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">Le 28 août 2021 à 20:21, Nicolas Cadieux <<a href="mailto:njacadieux.gitlab@gmail.com" target="_blank">njacadieux.gitlab@gmail.com</a>> a écrit :<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi,</div><div><br></div>Is there an easy way, in processing, to dissolve lines that are touching?
