[Qgis-developer] fTools problems

[John C. Tull]

Carson,

There seem to be multiple problems on the Mac platform (OS X 10.5.4  
with Qt4.4.1). From a recent svn build, I have strange problems with  
truncated file paths when selecting the "Output Path" for many of the  
tools. If I browse to a path called /Users/username/Desktop, the path  
may show as /Users/usern once the browse dialog is closed. This does  
not seem to happen always, so I have no idea as to why this occurs.

I just tried using the Distance Matrix analysis tool. No problem  
browsing to my Desktop folder to create a file called test.csv. When I  
ran the tool, though, a python error window came up with this message:

An error has occured while executing Python code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/Users/jctull/.qgis/python/plugins/fTools/tools/ 
doPointDistance.py", line 104, in accept

nearest, self.progressBar)

Generally speaking, these tools are not working on OS X. At least from  
my experience. If I can assist you in debugging those this coming  
week, feel free to email me on or off list. I will try to be on irc  
also.

Thanks,
John
