[Qgis-user] add coordinates to my map?

[Alexandre Neto]

Hello Peter,

Following Lene's idea, If your layer geometry type are lines or polygons,
you need to calculate the centroid.

https://sigsemgrilhetas.wordpress.com/2015/02/10/calcular-coordenadas-do-centroide-de-poligonos-calculate-polygon-centroids-coordinates/

So the expression will become:



*xmin(centroid($geometry)) || ‘ , ‘ || ymin(centroid($geometry))*
Hope it helped,

Alexandre
