[Qgis-user] Qgis Styles

[Johan Nilsson]

I have not used it yet so I'm not sure, but I think the only way is to use
the open standard formate SLD
http://underdark.wordpress.com/2012/06/03/sld-support-and-other-qgis1-8-style-features/

There are also possible to make this in ArcGIS
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/3755/how-to-edit-or-convert-ar

And also MapInfo can read and create SDL-files.

How does it work to exange style defined layer files between MapInfo and
ArcGIS? Even there may the use of SLD as layer style make it easier? If i'm
not correct, pleas correct me.

Cheers
