<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I’m not sure if this is a solution for you, but have you considered using attribution and storing your styling requirements as a set of attribute values. You can do this for Fill Colour, Stroke Thickness, Font,
Sizes…etc…<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">You could build a graphic modeller to add the attribution to your data and then have a single default style, which has all the Styling Variables set to use the new attribution.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">I am trying to find an easier way of colouring a geological map. The only way I can find to colourise the polygons in both the map window and layers panel – and hence the displayed legend – is to use the rule-based rendering
option. Each rule has to be manually styled. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Is there a way to get QGIS to interrogate a text file for styling information? I can’t seem to find one anywhere in the algorithms. Aiming to use this in a graphical modeller to automate colourising geological maps. I
can use a fixed qml file but that has to be done for each individual map unless you have a wide range of set styles.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
