06:31:07 cgs_bob_: hi wonder_sk. I was just trying to build the symbology-ng-branch. I had to do this to build it: http://rafb.net/p/4Vp2oP65.html. I'll start testing after I have breakfast : )
06:39:06 wonder_sk: hi cgs_bob_
06:39:35 cgs_bob_: hi wonder_sk
06:39:42 wonder_sk: great to hear that you're going to test!
06:39:52 wonder_sk: don't forget to update to latest revision : )
06:40:18 wonder_sk: regarding the problem, it's something grass related, i think it has been fixed in trunk already
06:41:21 cgs_bob_: super! I'll update and give it another shot.
06:53:00 cgs_bob_: wonder_sk: btw, one of my symbology wishes for qgis is to use something like this for labels "First attribute is [attrib1]\nSecond attribute is [attrib2]" the names between [] are inserted from a drop down list of the features attribute table.
06:55:18 wonder_sk: cgs_bob_: this could be actually solved also with a field calculator, what a pity there isn't one yet in qgis : )
06:56:24 wonder_sk: anyway in this branch i'm doing only changes to symbols/rendering... not sure where i'll commit my labeling work
06:57:33 cgs_bob_: sounds like a good idea. looking forward to your work : )
07:07:53 cgs_bob_: wonder_sk: this is the first time I tried to have both qgis and a branch running on my system. just tried to run the branch and I'm getting a "qgsgrass.cpp: 370: ( error_routine ) error_routine ( fatal = 1 ): Incompatible library version for module. You need to rebuild GRASS or untangle multiple installations." got any ideas on how to resolve this?
07:09:27 wonder_sk: cgs_bob_: hmm... i've been using more branches of qgis for ages without problems. what grass version do you use? the same for both installations?
07:09:55 wonder_sk: does qgis segfault on this?
07:12:23 cgs_bob_: wonder_sk: I have both grass 6.5 and grass 7.0. I don't have a problem with qgis 1.2. but it does look like the branch is picking up grass 7.0 libraries even though I set GRASS_PREFIX=/usr/local/grass-6.5.svn
07:12:34 cgs_bob_: and yes...it segfaults
07:12:59 wonder_sk: weird
07:13:34 wonder_sk: if you want just a quick workaround, set WITH_GRASS to FALSE and grass provider+plugin will be not installed...
07:14:03 cgs_bob_: I'll do that...brb
07:27:32 cgs_bob_: wonder_sk: I got it running...what should I try?
07:27:59 wonder_sk: cgs_bob_: there are two new buttons on the toolbar: V2 and MGR
07:28:17 wonder_sk: MGR opens style manager where you can manage the symbols and color ramps
07:28:37 wonder_sk: and V2 can be used to change symbology of the active vector layer
07:29:09 cgs_bob_: darn! I just got the breakfast call...brb
07:29:14 wonder_sk: after clicking V2 button it will override settings of the original symbology and the new symbology will be used
08:09:15 cgs_bob_: wonder_sk: this is a lot of fun. : ) I've been wanting to get the fgdc symbols in qgis. how do I put my own symbols in this new branch of qgis?
08:38:52 wonder_sk: cgs_bob_: you can add new symbols in the style manager
08:39:10 wonder_sk: the symbols and color ramps are saved in ~/.qgis/symbology-ng-style.xml file
09:01:11 cgs_bob_: wonder_sk: do you just drop the symbol in the manager?
09:14:08 wonder_sk: cgs_bob_: in what representation do you have those fgdc symbols?
09:14:40 wonder_sk: you have to create the symbols by hand
09:19:31 : * wonder_sk has to go now... later!
