<div dir="auto">If the data is being read as a character versus a integer or decimal, you cannot use graduated symbols. Double left click on the layer in the legend and select properties. Select the Fields tab and see what format the attributes are being read as. I have run into this when generating a csv from a spreadsheet from different language. I would convert the format in excel or livre office and regenerate the csv file. Alternatively you can use text editor to replace the quotes on each value in the existing csv.</div><div dir="auto"><br /></div><div dir="auto">Kirk Schmidt</div><div dir="auto"><br /></div><div dir="auto"><br /></div><div dir="auto"><br /></div><div id="composer_signature" dir="auto"><div style="font-size:85%;color:#575757" dir="auto">Sent from my Galaxy</div></div><div dir="auto"><br /></div><div><br /></div><div align="left" dir="auto" style="font-size:100%;color:#000000"><div>-------- Original message --------</div><div>From: Allan Younger via Qgis-user <<a href="mailto:qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org">qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org</a>> </div><div>Date: 2022-06-18 3:13 a.m. (GMT-04:00) </div><div>To: "Kobben, Barend (UT-ITC)" <<a href="mailto:b.j.kobben@utwente.nl">b.j.kobben@utwente.nl</a>>, chris hermansen <<a href="mailto:clhermansen@gmail.com">clhermansen@gmail.com</a>> </div><div>Cc: QGIS User <<a href="mailto:Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org">Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org</a>> </div><div>Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] Symbology </div><div><br /></div></div><div>csv file</div>
