[Qgis-user] change CRS of layer

[Frank Sokolic]

Hi Walter,

In QGIS 1.6 you can set the layer CRS in the layer properties. Open the layer properties and go to the General tab - you will see a button labelled 'Specify CRS'.


If your layer already has a CRS specified and you want to save it to another CRS: right-click on the layer name and select the 'Save as' option. You can then specify the CRS for the new layer.


Frank.

Subject: [Qgis-user] change CRS of layer
Tho i gather that one should be able to declare which CRS to use on a particular layer, i seem to be missing the control(s -no mention of CRS in the Layer menu, nor in the contextual menu that pops up when i right-click on a layer) that should provide such functionality. 

Is anybody experiencing the same? I am running version 1.6.0, which asserts itself to be the current version (when i "Check QGIS version" from the Help menu).
