[Qgis-user] Help converting State

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi Doug.

QGIS will reproject the data on the fly so you will not “see” (on the screen) the difference. Try saving the reprojected file as a .gpkg then use the field calculator to create a new x and y field.  That should generate new x and y coordinates in the new CRS.
