Re: [udig-devel] Creating new dataset from selected features.

Dave Sampson wrote:
I would like to load a dataset (ESRI SHP), select features using the
select square, once the features are highlighted I would like to copy
those to a new layer. That is I would like to pick out lakes in my area
instead of for the whole province. Equivalent to arc make new shapefile.
I have had no luck with QGIS or UDIG, having projection issues in GRASS,
and have not re-downloaded JUMP yet (I think I remember doing it in
JUMP before). I'm stuck. Any other sugestions? Or is it back to Arcview?
One of the students in the recent training course did something similar
to this. Quick question is do you have a development environment? Based
on the export shapefile tutorial source code (in svn) it should be about
a 5 line change to export the "selection" for the current layer.
The tutorial currently shows how to export the current layer.
If you don't have time or facilities please place this as a Wish in the
bug tracker for the UDIG 1.0.1 release.
P.S If I live on the bleeding edge is there a plugin or other snapshot I
can use?
Actually that would help a lot, if we know there is interest in an issue
from the user community (and can get help with testing) it goes a long
way.
As for the bleeding edge - We do have a nightly release system, Last
release is from Thursday. We are going to package up a release tomorrow
for Chris Holmes. And then focus on uDig 1.0.1 (db2 support and update
manager).
The support page
(http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/UDIG/Support) contains
links to the uDig Roadmap and issue tracker.
Thanks for you interest,
Jody
