[Qgis-user] Georeferencing Vector Files

Most likely the algorithm is hidden by the simplified interface. Change to
advanced using the drop down in the bottom of the toolbox.

And yes, we are already discussing if this interface option makes sense.

Best wishes

Hey Yourself,

        Very interesting, this is what I get, bugger all:

        So what accounts for the difference?  Some installation quirk no
doubt.  I did select GRASS as an installation option.  In 2.8.3 it was
listed under plug-ins, but under 2.10.1 is no longer there.  But it was
installed as a standalone.

         Consistency does not seem to be a strong point here.

                 I do appreciate the help however, I'm sure there is an
answer somewhere, Cheers . . . . . . . . Spring Harrison

Hi

I did this recently using the GRASS command v.transform.pointsfile from the
Processing Toolbox in QGIS. No need to actually go into GRASS and create
mapsets.

This worked really well for me for unreferenced DXFs. If you need any more
info let me know.

Cheers

Tom

Ok, thanks. I'm installing QGIS on W7 yet again, trying to achieve better
functionality. That is a challenge in itself, prone to wrong turns.
Hopefully the VectorGeoref will then work.

This whole install process is a real piece of work . . . . .

Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Thanks again, cheers . . . .Â Spring Harrison
