[Qgis-user] QGIS 2.4 open att.table makes "noise" and works slow

[Lene Fischer]

Hi,

Thanks for all the answers.

I use Windows 7 QGIS 2.4 - 64 bit.

Correct - when I save using Ascii there are no noise and speed is back to normal.

This is a disaster, while we in Denmark use Latin1 and not Ascii.

This is just an extension of the wrong codepage.



Chatter in the forum suggests that people that use special characters in the directory names have sound. Change the directory to just have 'ASCII' characters and all works. As I stated, rendering a symbol that the program or OS does not understand can cause the system to behave incorrectly.



I had a similar issue with using the degree symbol (as for Degrees

Celcius) in a spreadsheet. The whole application went mad with the image being rendered all over the place and sound coming from the speakers.

Removing the symbol got ride of the problem.



If the file does not render then the directory name may be the issue. If only the attribute data causes a problem it is most likely the data in that table.
