[Qgis-user] multiple polygon features within a layer

[Kirk Schmidt]

Hi Dave:

You can create a new layer and then digitize the polygons you require.  
Give each polygon a unique attribute and then set up the symbology as 
categorized by the attribute you coded.  Select a colour pallet and apply.

You can add a unique attribute to each polygon immediately after you 
finish digitizing.  The default attribute id 'id' and you can just enter 
seqential numbers as you go.  Alternatively you can add a new attribute 
or recalculate the id field after you finish digitizing.
