I am completely stymied in my attempt to do what should be a simple task. I have a map of vector areas, linked with an attribute table. I would like to patch in one more vector area, for which I have equivalent attribute information. I have tried this multiple
ways and I cannot make this patch happen so that the added area has attribute info.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The closest I've come is to create and link a one line table to the new area that has exactly the same fields as the larger vector area map. The first map has 154 areas (i.e., cat=1-155). When I patch the maps and look at the resulting attribute table,
I indeed see line and cat 155. But it is not linked with the patched area--which has been assigned a cat=183 for reasons I cannot fathom. The patch also renumbers my cat field to cat=2-155 from the original 1-154. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This has been made more complicated by the fact that v.in.ogr imports all columns of a *.csv as text, regardless of what is in them and assigns cat numbers starting at 1. So I can't specify an integer key field of 155 to try the linking. Nor can I change
the assigned cat of the single area I am trying to patch from 1 to 155 using v.category (or anything else I can find). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm hoping that someone has a clever solution that I've not seen or I'll just have to do this fairly simple and straightforward vector operation in QGIS. </div>
