01:22:29 arkygeek: hi guys
01:24:29 arkygeek: i have a bunch of site plans that were drawn using a site grid. I have the coordinates of the site grid in relation to the palestine grid. I am wondering if there is a way to quickly georeference these plans using the site grid coordinates, and then reproject them to the palestine grid?
01:30:45 spacedman: work out the corner coords and write a world file for the plan raster?

02:26:45 arkygeek: has nobody made a gdalwarp plugin yet?
02:26:47 arkygeek: :'(
03:27:14 kpanic: hi, it is possible to export SLD files from the style editor in QGIS? thanks
04:08:33 il_rugginoso: hi all
05:33:29 macho: 2nd QGIS Hackfest is on track!
05:33:54 aghisla: great!
05:35:06 macho: i hope my mail to the mailinglists got through
05:35:06 arkygeek: hi macho
05:35:43 arkygeek: was going to ask you if it is necessary to have a minimum height setting on the layer properties window
05:35:54 arkygeek: macho: it makes for problems onsome netbooks
05:37:23 macho: ive seen it on IRC last night - dont know if its necessary - didnt marco say he'll check that?
05:37:55 arkygeek: macho: don't know... might have...
05:38:27 arkygeek: but yeah, ok, someone knows about it anyway it sounds like :- )
05:39:27 macho: aghisla: got the mail on the mailinglist too?
05:39:40 aghisla: not yet
06:05:34 macho: hmpf
06:05:36 macho: The reason it is being held:
06:05:37 macho: Message has implicit destination
06:05:44 macho: whatever that means
06:09:48 macho: can a mailinglist moderator accept my mails to the list?

07:13:39 luca: hi all
07:14:02 luca: Help : changeGeometry of a Feature.......anyone can help me ?
07:15:36 FiReSTaRT: hey luca.. what exactly is the issue?
07:15:50 FiReSTaRT: can't guarantee to be of help, but i can always try : )
07:16:13 luca: ok
07:16:26 luca: i add a vectorlayer: vl = QgsVectorLayer( "Point", "provaLayer", "memory" )
07:16:40 luca: QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance( ).addMapLayer( vl )
07:16:53 luca: pr = vl.dataProvider( )
07:17:03 luca: i have defined a feature
07:17:05 luca: :
07:17:22 luca: et = QgsFeature( )
07:17:23 luca: fet.setAttributeMap( { 0 : QVariant( "12" ), 1 : QVariant( "wideband" ), 2 :
07:17:23 luca: QVariant( "1.0" ) } )
07:17:23 luca: fet.setGeometry( QgsGeometry.fromPoint( QgsPoint( x,y ) ) )
07:17:23 luca: pr.addFeatures( [ fet ] )
07:17:23 luca: vl.updateExtents( )
07:17:43 luca: it works
07:18:01 luca: now I should want to update the position of the point
07:18:23 luca: how can be it done ?
07:18:32 FiReSTaRT: let me just stop you for a second... i'm assuming that you are writing a plugin? if that's the case you're way ahead of me lol
07:18:40 luca: yes correct
07:18:42 FiReSTaRT: i can give general qgis usage tips but that's about it
07:19:21 FiReSTaRT: currently doing some basic homework on posgis and mapserver implementations : )
07:20:02 luca: ok
07:21:17 FiReSTaRT: btw your plugin may be of interest to me.. is your plugin meant to auto-update positions based on gps data?
07:21:33 luca: not from gps but from a mysql db
07:21:57 luca: read points and show it
07:22:01 luca: in iterativa fashion
07:22:15 luca: let' s say ..... 1 time per second
07:22:39 FiReSTaRT: ok, that's still something that could come in very useful
07:23:04 luca: conceptually very simple... but just a little hard for a qgis beginner like me
07:23:05 luca: : )
07:23:21 FiReSTaRT: because the implementations i'm working on are keeping track of crews, jobs and equipment, while making it as real-time as possible : )
07:23:58 luca: real time may be an hard issue from my point of view on qgis

08:09:10 arkygeek: FrankW: hi :- )
08:09:47 arkygeek: FrankW: I just somehow broke carsons tools plugin... I was trying to build grass and think I must have messed up the frameworks or something....
08:10:29 FrankW: ouch
08:13:11 arkygeek: let me pastebin the error report
08:14:09 arkygeek: FrankW: http://pastebin.com/d1e4621ff
08:14:10 sigq: Title: pastebin - collaborative debugging tool ( at pastebin.com )
08:15:42 FrankW: Hmm, an exception in the coordinate transform code.
08:16:02 : * FrankW svn updates...
08:19:48 FrankW: arkygeek: I see that the transform code will throw an exception like this in any situation that pj_transform( ) fails.
08:20:02 FrankW: It looks like lots of information should be routed to the debug console output if you can enable that.
08:20:53 FrankW: I had not realized that QGIS directly called PROJ.4.
08:21:38 arkygeek: FrankW: this was a crash report... how do i enable the debug console?
08:21:58 FrankW: I'm not sure how to enable the debug console.
08:22:11 FrankW: And the crash appears to be just how untrapped c++ exceptions are being handled.
08:22:24 FrankW: I'm surprised that the sip bindings don't trap exceptions and turn them into something in python.
08:25:52 arkygeek: why does cmake say python is not being built?
08:27:40 : * FrankW has no idea ... cmake is magic on linux, and everything is magic on macosx!
08:35:11 : * arkygeek is at 51% on the qgis build...
08:44:19 arkygeek: FrankW: so yeah, built fine, installed fine, but not usable... crashes before the splash screen....: Dyld Error Message:

08:44:41 arkygeek: what did I do to break this? :'(

09:00:26 arkygeek: ok, sorted it out
09:00:34 arkygeek: seems it needed 3 to be 3.0
09:00:51 arkygeek: so I did a sudo cp -R ./3 ./3.0
09:01:42 springmeyer: arkygeek: ack, ya I was hit by that name change to the first time I build qgis on a mac
09:06:06 epifanio: springmeyer: i'have crash too when i active some plug-in .. maybe it us related to nametool too
09:06:32 epifanio: have you the name tool instructions to fix this problem ?
09:06:33 arkygeek: springmeyer: i wanted to do a symlink but couldn't figure out how to do it for a folder
09:07:00 springmeyer: epifanio: we shoud rename it from macosx to crashosx, sound good? I don't think apple will approve, but...
09:07:08 arkygeek: heh
09:07:10 arkygeek: :P
09:07:30 epifanio: ahah :- ) yes some times it kill me!
09:07:49 springmeyer: arkygeek: but just upgrading the GEOS framework fixes the symlinks, right?
09:07:52 springmeyer: thats all I did
09:08:10 wildintellect: epifanio, any progress on making Ossim easier to build on Ubuntu - or a deb?
09:08:32 epifanio: wildintellect: check the osgeo wiki :- )
09:08:48 epifanio: i'm writing notes about the build instructions
09:08:55 epifanio: let me search the link ..
09:08:59 wildintellect: on your SOC page?
09:09:17 epifanio: it is titled : gfoss.it live
09:09:22 epifanio: no on osgeo wiki
09:09:28 epifanio: i wroted it yestarday
09:09:36 epifanio: not finished yet
09:09:46 epifanio: i missed all the web-gis stuf
09:10:13 epifanio: i need to add mapserver and mapnik intruction too ( svn versions )
09:10:57 epifanio: this page : http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GFOSS.it_Live_DVD_Install
09:10:59 sigq: Title: GFOSS.it Live DVD Install - OSGeo Wiki ( at wiki.osgeo.org )
09:12:38 wildintellect: interesting you moved to a different distro for the live cd again
09:13:15 epifanio: yes, i used sidux beacouse it is up to data with recent kernel .. so it works great for mac too
09:13:27 wildintellect: ah
09:13:37 epifanio: but the major reason is the sidux uses debian sid repository
09:13:50 epifanio: so it is in syn with debian.gis
09:13:53 epifanio: *sync
09:14:42 wildintellect: fun twist, have you been watching the UbuntuGIS group
09:15:00 epifanio: this means that it has some gis stuff updated in the repository ( like grass 6.4 ) etc
09:15:13 epifanio: yes but i had no lucky with 9.04
09:15:43 wildintellect: I mean only in the last couple of weeks has new stuff gone up
09:15:48 epifanio: it has some bug in sdl package ( it do not recognize my joystick to play with ossimplanet ) and other little bug
09:16:25 wildintellect: ok thanks for the info
09:16:46 epifanio: you can compile sdl from source
09:17:40 epifanio: but i had other problems in the qt-4.5 gui in ossimplanet .. to load files the openfile dialog do not works as aspected .. while the same ossim revision worked fine on sidux
09:17:57 epifanio: again sidux come with a more light cd ( xfce based ) 360 mb
09:19:15 epifanio: ufff i selected some plug-in in qgis now it crash on start ... jctull suggest me a coomand line to fix the nametool problems
09:19:50 epifanio: http://paste.debian.net/38639/
09:19:52 sigq: Title: #debian.de Pastezone ( at paste.debian.net )
09:20:15 epifanio: i'm tring to modify it for my path and see what appens :-/
09:23:28 arkygeek: urfff why doesn't python build?!???
09:23:48 epifanio: arkygeek: are you using xcode or cmake ?
09:23:58 arkygeek: epifanio: cmake
09:24:10 epifanio: her python builds, i sed global install set to on
09:25:05 epifanio: unlucky the name tool instrunction ... the first line until the ";" give me no errors
09:25:32 arkygeek: epifanio: i don't get what you mean.... global install to on...
09:26:09 epifanio: but the second part of the command maybe has a wrong syntax .. it give me : http://paste.debian.net/38642/
09:26:11 sigq: Title: #debian.de Pastezone ( at paste.debian.net )
09:26:33 epifanio: arkygeek: in cmake .. text gui it is the secod option
09:26:42 arkygeek: PYTHON_LIBRARY -framework Python
09:26:46 arkygeek: is that ok?
09:26:48 epifanio: BINDINGS_GLOBAL_INSTALL ON
09:27:44 epifanio: yes i have the same python lib path
09:27:44 : * arkygeek shakes his head... doh! sorry
09:28:42 epifanio: arkygeek: using xcode don't works for you ?
09:29:17 luca_: anyone are using QgsVectoLayer::changeGeometry( ) ???????????? please HELP
09:29:36 arkygeek: didn't try
09:29:57 arkygeek: trying now
09:29:58 epifanio: i have problems enabling grass beacouse i have grass6.5 that uses geos .. and william has no include for the grass geos need ... i think that xcode build without problems if you have grass6.4
09:30:27 epifanio: using xcode you will not have problems with python plugins name tool issue
09:31:14 epifanio: however have you seen the name tool log ? seems to me i'm using a wrong syntax .. any clue about ?
09:36:52 : * arkygeek is building in XCode now...
09:56:53 arkygeek: wow
09:56:58 arkygeek: 225 errors, 74 warnings
10:06:07 arkygeek: screw it. tomorrow is another day

11:16:48 lynx_r: hi, is python libraries link to qgis static?
11:20:26 jef: macho: the mail was held because you didn't include the mailing list in the header ( you bcced the list I supposed )
11:21:35 jef: lynx_r: qgis is not statically linked to python
11:21:56 jef: lynx_r: at least not on linux and windows. I doubt that it is on osx
11:38:35 lynx_r: jef: i got this errors http://paste.debian.net/38625/ when tried to compile qgis. do you have any suggestions? i guess there is a problem in installation of python?
11:38:38 sigq: Title: #debian.de Pastezone ( at paste.debian.net )
11:40:30 jef: lynx_r: looks like it. does a cmake unix makefiles build work?
11:43:36 lynx_r: jef: yes, cmake creates makefile
11:44:50 FiReSTaRT: @seen cfarmer
11:44:50 sigq: FiReSTaRT: cfarmer was last seen in #qgis 2 weeks, 6 days, 7 hours, 42 minutes, and 51 seconds ago: <cfarmer> ah I guess it's an issue with the copywrite label?
11:45:13 FiReSTaRT: yikes... where'd carson go off to?
12:16:19 LintWad: So, I need to go from State Plane Coordinate System to UTM. It's a vector file. Any easy way to do so?
12:16:51 FiReSTaRT: you mean to reproject it?
12:17:09 FiReSTaRT: should be easy as hell.. just use Carson's f-tools
12:17:41 LintWad: Carson's f-tools?
12:17:50 LintWad: I'm pretty inexperienced, so this could be an adventure.
12:17:55 FiReSTaRT: not really
12:18:01 FiReSTaRT: i'll guide you through installing them
12:18:05 LintWad: Alright. Thank you.
12:18:19 FiReSTaRT: have you used the plugin installer before?
12:18:36 LintWad: I do not believe I have.
12:18:48 LintWad: I installed Grass, so I might've.
12:18:51 FiReSTaRT: ok click on plugins, fetch python plugins
12:19:59 FiReSTaRT: click on the repositories tab and make sure you enable the 3rd party repositories
12:19:59 LintWad: I do not seem to have that option, it is entirely possible I am looking in the incorrect location.
12:20:15 FiReSTaRT: ahh you may need to enable it first
12:20:41 FiReSTaRT: plugins, manage plugins and make sure you enable the plugin installer
12:21:41 LintWad: Hrms. Not finding a checkbox for that. Would the OGR layer converter help?
12:21:52 FiReSTaRT: no
12:21:58 FiReSTaRT: ;.
12:22:13 : * LintWad slaps qgis a coupla times.
12:22:20 FiReSTaRT: Plugin Installer should be just below the OGR layer converter
12:22:31 FiReSTaRT: with me its the 2nd one down
12:22:37 LintWad: Yea. Not there. The title would be "Plugin Installer"?
12:22:44 FiReSTaRT: yep
12:22:55 FiReSTaRT: what OS r u running on?
12:22:58 LintWad: Windows.
12:23:15 FiReSTaRT: ahhh you may need to install python first
12:23:34 FiReSTaRT: which version of qgis do u have? 1.0.1 or 1.0.2?
12:23:40 LintWad: 1.0.1
12:23:53 FiReSTaRT: uninstall and dl 1.0.2 http://www.qgis.org/en/download/binaries.html
12:23:55 sigq: Title: Stable software packages ( at www.qgis.org )
12:24:14 FiReSTaRT: should be the first dl link
12:25:25 FiReSTaRT: with 1.0.1 i think you'd need to install python separately on windows, but since i find 1.0.2 more functional ( at least on linux ) you might as well have it up and running
12:25:38 FiReSTaRT: and it might even come with python prepackaged
12:25:51 LintWad: Alright. Should I uninstall 1.0.1 or will it auto-update?
12:25:58 FiReSTaRT: yep This is an MSVC based build of QGIS. All dependencies are supplied in a standalone installer, including python, gdal ( including MrSid Wavelet compressed raster support ) etc. T
12:26:14 FiReSTaRT: i'd uninstall 1.0.1 just in case.. doesn't take much time and that's how it worked for me : )
12:26:27 LintWad: It says that for 1.0.1 too.
12:26:30 LintWad: Weird.
12:26:44 FiReSTaRT: depends on when you installed it and which installer you used
12:27:02 FiReSTaRT: just install 1.0.2 and we'll work from there
12:27:18 LintWad: Working on it. Will take a few minutes.
12:27:48 FiReSTaRT: no worries.. i have to sit here for a couple of hours in any case : )
12:27:52 LintWad: Haha. Alright.
12:27:57 LintWad: I'll let you know when I finish.
12:28:07 FiReSTaRT: and the mrs is sleeping so it's not like i can find a better diversion ; )
12:28:34 LintWad: Oddly enough I can't find QGIS in my program list, so its proving a little difficult to uninstall.
12:29:27 FiReSTaRT: would you have the uninstaller somewhere with the launcher? like when you go start, programs, qgis?
12:30:29 LintWad: I would have thought so.
12:30:37 LintWad: I found an "appache uninstaller" but it doesn't seem to do anything.
12:31:10 FiReSTaRT: hmm
12:31:38 FiReSTaRT: weird.. lemme take a look
12:31:40 LintWad: If I can find the installer, I could try rerunning it and seeing if it has an option.
12:32:06 FiReSTaRT: the 1.0.1 dev version has an uninstallers
12:32:32 FiReSTaRT: go start, programs, Qgis, and you should have Uninstall QGIS
12:33:00 LintWad: The only thing i have is the
12:33:09 LintWad: OSGeo4w Apache Uninstaller
12:33:19 LintWad: upon clicking on it a command prompt box quickly opens and closes.
12:33:29 LintWad: Nothing happens.
12:33:32 FiReSTaRT: thats just for OSGeo
12:33:37 LintWad: Yea. That's what I figured.
12:33:39 FiReSTaRT: but there should be one for quantum as well
12:33:42 LintWad: I have nothing for quantum.
12:35:26 FiReSTaRT: weird
12:35:31 LintWad: I know.
12:35:32 FiReSTaRT: ok try running the installer for 1.0.2 anyway
12:35:35 LintWad: A little bit annoying too.
12:35:36 LintWad: Will do.
12:35:45 FiReSTaRT: u on vista or xp?
12:36:37 LintWad: Vista.
12:36:42 LintWad: Unfortunately.
12:37:27 FiReSTaRT: that could be the issue
12:37:37 LintWad: It probably is.
12:37:39 FiReSTaRT: my laptop came preloaded with it :D
12:37:47 LintWad: Yea. Mine had vista.
12:38:00 LintWad: I don't do enough yet to warrant learning linux.
12:38:23 LintWad: Okay. Updated.
12:38:29 FiReSTaRT: nothing to learn.. stupid easy.. the only problem could be some hardware incompatibility... here are the issues that i have
12:38:40 FiReSTaRT: 1 ) can't suspend.. have to shut off the machine
12:38:56 FiReSTaRT: 2 ) can't stream sound via hdmi ( so i have to plug in computer speakers when streaming to the tv )
12:39:09 LintWad: err, maybe not.
12:39:19 FiReSTaRT: 3 ) can't use the built-in mic, so i have to plug in a $1 el-cheapo
12:39:25 FiReSTaRT: when skyping
12:39:58 FiReSTaRT: to me, that's something i can deal with as long as i dont have to deal with vista
12:40:02 FiReSTaRT: maybe not? not updated?
12:40:10 LintWad: Yea, not looking like it.
12:40:20 LintWad: It looked different when I opened it, but when I checked the version, it says the same.
12:40:51 FiReSTaRT: don't worry abotu that part... that could be a glitch.. now try to enable the plugin installer again
12:41:04 LintWad: That was the second thing I tried.
12:41:45 FiReSTaRT: and no luck?
12:41:57 LintWad: No.
12:42:16 LintWad: Lemme try something real quick.
12:42:53 FiReSTaRT: ok
12:42:54 LintWad: Weird. It was supposed to add the new files into C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS
12:42:59 LintWad: I cannot find that folder.
12:43:29 LintWad: Running installer again, for the hell of it.
12:43:41 FiReSTaRT: ok...
12:44:06 FiReSTaRT: but that's weird.. im definitely glad im not running windows now lol
12:44:35 LintWad: haha
12:44:48 LintWad: Well
12:44:51 LintWad: Let me try a restart.
12:44:55 LintWad: i'll be back in a couple of minutes.
12:45:01 FiReSTaRT: ok.. ill be here : )
12:50:41 LintWad: No dice.
12:50:53 LintWad: I can try the "delete directory" and then re-install.
12:51:06 FiReSTaRT: might be a good idea
12:51:09 FiReSTaRT: delete the shortcuts too
12:52:12 LintWad: err, wait, are/were you referring to FW tools?
12:52:20 FiReSTaRT: no.. f-tools
12:52:27 LintWad: Okay. So they're different?
12:52:45 FiReSTaRT: i dont even know what FW tools are lol
12:53:09 FiReSTaRT: once you install f-tools, you will have a new menu item "Tools" show up on the bar between "Plugins" and "Help"
12:53:18 LintWad: Alright.
12:53:20 LintWad: This ain't it.
12:53:33 FiReSTaRT: i wouldn't touch Qgis without'em :P
12:54:22 FiReSTaRT: some of their equivalents cost extra with esri ; )
12:54:29 LintWad: this will re-install OSGeo4w too, right?
12:55:02 LintWad: I hope so. I just deleted it.
12:55:03 LintWad: XD
12:55:12 FiReSTaRT: should :P
12:55:25 FiReSTaRT: but with vista.. you never know :D
12:55:54 LintWad: So true.
12:57:17 FiReSTaRT: i still maintain the belief that the world would be a much happier place without viruses created by microsoft and symantec :D
12:57:18 LintWad: Cross your fingers.
12:57:27 FiReSTaRT: toes too, while im at it :P
12:57:28 LintWad: I can use all the help I can get.
12:59:35 LintWad: Yes. It's not installing for some reason.
13:00:42 FiReSTaRT: weird.. any msg?
13:00:54 FiReSTaRT: you may wanna open regedit and delete everything u can dig up on qgis
13:00:56 FiReSTaRT: and osgeo
13:01:22 LintWad: Not really. Just a blank shortcut and no file folder.
13:02:21 FiReSTaRT: but what about the registry editor?
13:02:23 LintWad: Im trying one more thing before I need a beer.
13:04:01 LintWad: Nothing in Registry I can find.
13:06:18 FiReSTaRT: i cant offer you much help as i'm 8500km away from the nearest computer running vista that i can use
13:06:48 LintWad: Im trying a different install to see if that works.
13:06:57 LintWad: If it doesn't, thanks for the help you've given. If it does, we're in business.
13:07:06 FiReSTaRT: http://forum.qgis.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4568 maybe this will help
13:07:07 sigq: Title: Quantum GIS Forum View topic - Windows Vista Installation ( at forum.qgis.org )
13:12:03 LintWad: Doing that now.
13:13:01 FiReSTaRT: cool
13:18:18 LintWad: OH
13:18:19 LintWad: OH
13:18:21 LintWad: I THINK IT WORKEDD
13:18:32 : * FiReSTaRT re-crossing fingers+toes
13:18:48 LintWad: It worked!
13:19:38 FiReSTaRT: kickass!!!
13:19:42 LintWad: So
13:19:43 LintWad: um
13:19:44 LintWad: Now what?
13:19:47 FiReSTaRT: now enable the plugin installer
13:19:53 LintWad: Already done!
13:19:58 FiReSTaRT: sweet
13:20:05 FiReSTaRT: open it up and make sure you enable 3rd party repositories
13:20:24 LintWad: Where do I do that?
13:20:41 FiReSTaRT: first restart qgis
13:20:44 LintWad: Wait
13:20:44 FiReSTaRT: close and open
13:20:46 LintWad: I think I gots it
13:20:52 FiReSTaRT: then go to plugins, fetch python plugins
13:20:58 LintWad: Carsen Farmer?
13:21:03 FiReSTaRT: Carson Farmer : )
13:21:14 LintWad: Yes.
13:21:15 LintWad: That's it.
13:21:17 FiReSTaRT: a fellow-Canadian, currently in Ireland
13:21:25 LintWad: Alrighty.
13:21:26 LintWad: So
13:21:29 LintWad: I see his repository
13:21:31 FiReSTaRT: yeah.. once u have the ftools up and running, youll be able to kick some vector data ass : )
13:21:37 FiReSTaRT: enable all of the repositories
13:21:46 FiReSTaRT: i think its automatic with 1 button
13:21:56 LintWad: Yup.
13:21:57 FiReSTaRT: and once youre connected u should be able to get to the ftools and a lot of other goodies
13:22:07 LintWad: install plugin I assume
13:22:08 LintWad: for ftools
13:22:16 FiReSTaRT: yes
13:22:19 FiReSTaRT: that one for sure
13:22:29 FiReSTaRT: i use it more than all of the others combined
13:22:38 LintWad: Alright.
13:23:24 LintWad: Oh man.
13:23:27 LintWad: This may be awesome.
13:23:32 LintWad: So, lets try and see if I can get it to chagne
13:23:33 FiReSTaRT: once you have the ftools up and running, go to Tools, Data Management, Export to new projection
13:23:51 FiReSTaRT: u will get a new file hard-projected into the new crs
13:24:05 FiReSTaRT: i think u need to load the vector layer first
13:24:13 LintWad: yea
13:24:14 FiReSTaRT: text shortcut is V
13:24:15 LintWad: just did that
13:24:20 FiReSTaRT: R for raster layers : )
13:26:42 LintWad: jesus
13:26:45 LintWad: that didn't work right
13:26:53 FiReSTaRT: what happened?
13:27:04 LintWad: It converted
13:27:08 LintWad: but it must not have been the right conversion
13:27:12 LintWad: it looked all janky
13:28:35 FiReSTaRT: try closing qgis, reopening it and just loading the new layer
13:31:54 LintWad: No dice.
13:32:01 LintWad: I'm getting a view more like 30% slope above the ground.
13:32:05 LintWad: rather than an overview
13:32:45 LintWad: Which means something is off.
13:33:34 FiReSTaRT: hang on
13:34:42 FiReSTaRT: 1 last thing you may wanna try...
13:34:50 FiReSTaRT: click on the crs status button ( bottom right )
13:35:02 FiReSTaRT: set the desired project crs
13:35:12 FiReSTaRT: and check the enable on the fly crs transform
13:39:00 LintWad: It looks better
13:39:05 LintWad: but its not being put anywhere near where my other stuff is
13:39:26 LintWad: I'm going to have to fool with it tomorrow.
13:39:37 FiReSTaRT: yeah.. b/c i never had issues with reprojected layers
13:39:52 LintWad: I think this state plane coordinate system is tricky. I'm not sure.
13:39:57 LintWad: Either way, thanks for your help
13:39:59 LintWad: and have a good evening.
13:40:03 FiReSTaRT: no worries and good luck
13:40:05 FiReSTaRT: you too : )
