[Qgis-user] Drawing of objects from a shape file

[Dave Potts]

Hi list

I have a shape file with several overlapping ploygons, is there any way 
of telling qgis which order to draw the polygons in?

Naturally I would a like the smallest polygon to be drawn on top of the 
larger polygons so thats its possible to all of the polygons at one time.

The data has a layer id which has a different value for each of the 
polygons, could I use this to force the ordering of the drawing?


regards

Dave.
