[Qgis-user] Labelling certain contours

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi Lester/Carlos, 

Even better would be to use a rule-based label (available since 2.14 I
think). 

With rule-based labeling it is most likely a bit faster, since QGIS
doesn't have to deal with all of the contours that are not a multiple of
1000. 

In your case, with the CASE statement it still has to process every
contour line.
