[Qgis-developer] Coloring shapes of vector layer

[Marco Bernasocchi]

Hi Chris,
have you looked at [1]?
here my sample code using rendererV2:

layer = QgsVectorLayer("Point?crs=epsg:4326", "myLayer", "memory")
symbol = QgsMarkerSymbolV2.createSimple( { 'color' : '0,255,128' } )
layer.setRendererV2( QgsSingleSymbolRendererV2( symbol ) )

ciao Marco
