[Qgis-user] QGIS - Phase 1 Habitat Style Query

[Saber Razmjooei]

Hi Colin,

 

The first part of your question, as long as they are of the same geometry type (e.g. all polygon), you can store them in 1 file. But if you are working with ESRI Shapefiles, you can’t have multiple geometry type (e.g. point and polygon) in the same layer.

 

The second part of your email: when you zoom in too close to Google map, the image shifts. Therefore any layer you are digitising will be shifted too. 

 

Cheers,

Saber

To Whom it may concern,

 

Please could I submit the following query:

 

I have managed to load a style for JNCC Phase 1 Habitat Mapping as follows: settings – style manager – share – import – then browse to and select the file. Then I just created a poly, line or point for each habitat and selected the style. Can this be done within a single poly layer or am I correct creating a layer for each style used i.e. amenity grassland, improved grassland.  

 

The problem I still have is when digitising over a Google aerial (I used this in preference to Bing because you can zoom in closer) if I move the map all the shape files shift out of place, very frustrating!   If you know how to overcome this please could you let me know.  I’m sure I will probably come across other problems when I come to creating a layouts and legends etc but will post these queries later.

 

Kind regards

Colin
