[Qgis-user] Displaying county attribute names in the layers column

[Richard McDonnell]

Hi Mike,
Right click on the Layer, select Properties and go to Symbology. From there you should see, at the top, a drop down menu set to Single Symbol. You should change this to Categorize. Then under Value, set this to the Counties name field. Then click on Classify.
I hope that helps.
Regards,

Richard.

Hi, In your Styling, set it to Categorized and select the field which has your County Names.
Click Classify and you should get the full list of Counties. You can then modify your style to match your requirements.  Regard’s,   Richard.
Hi Richard,
I am using Hannover 3.16
When I highlight the layer and right click there is no "Styling" option available.
There is a "Styles" option which is opens a color wheel of sorts.
If I choose "Properties" I see nothing called "Styling" listed.

I am not sure what to look for next.
Thanks,
WV-Mike
p.s. You email went only to me, not the list so that is how I am replying.

Subject: [Qgis-user] Displaying county attribute names in the layers column

Greetings,
I have a state county outline layer in a project and wish to be able to see a list of the county names in the Layers column.
I looked through the options for the Layers Properties and also went through the menus but I saw nothing obvious.

How might I accomplish this?
Thanks,
WV-Mike
