[udig-devel] Coloring polygons

[Peter Bange <bange@xxxxxxxxx>]

1) After creating a new layer for polygon geometries I can draw  
polygons, count them, but they remain invisible whatever I do. Only  
selecting them show their outlines, so I can see were they are ...  
The style editor has no effect at all.

2) It took me long to get some effect of loaded PostGIS layers with  
the Style-Theme option, what I found out is:
    a) You first have to make the objects in the layer invisible  
with the Simple Style editor before the effects of the Theme Style  
editor
         are clearly visible
    b) Somehow uDig assumed the polygons in the layer I imported  
form postgis to be linestrings and refused to render the fill of the  
polygons

I wonder:
- How can I make newly drawn polygons visible ?
- How can I tell uDig to render the fills in stead of the (out)lines  
of polygons ?

Thanks in advance, Peter
