[Qgis-developer] rendering behavior options not available

[John C. Tull]

Hi William,

I believe this all can be traced back to this:
http://trac.osgeo.org/qgis/changeset/8421

Although I am not sure if that is true of the option to turn the on/off when loaded. I manually turned on the 'qgis.new_layers_visible' in the plist file and it seems to work fine.

Ah, it appears that the "fix" for Mac rendering redraw problems was to disable the entire groupBox_5 in the qgsoptions.cpp file for Mac systems.

There is a QGIS render preference to turn on/off layers by default when adding them to a project, but it is greyed out (and checked on), along with the other render behavior options, # features to draw and render cache (unchecked).  I think it's always been greyed out as far back as I can remember.
