[Qgis-developer] On the fly simplication of point layers

[A Huarte]

And, I wrote my reply wrong :-)

About point simplification, the strategy is no fetch in the featureiterator some points using a tolerance.
Do you think that I must try it ?

>>>Ok I guess you can see where I am going to go with this email :-) Is there any point to allowing users to simplify point layers? Alvaro, can your remove the point rendering tab in layer properties (and I guess check internally that you are not trying to simplify point layers)? Or is there a use case for point simplification that I am not getting?
