Changes in Thuban 1.0rc1 |
2 |
|
======================== |
3 |
|
|
4 |
|
- Redering improvements |
5 |
|
|
6 |
|
Rendering the map in the main window does not freeze Thuban |
7 |
|
completely anymore. While the rendering occurs the window is updated |
8 |
|
regularly to show the progress and you can interact with the window |
9 |
|
and thuban in general even when the rendering is not complete yet |
10 |
|
|
11 |
|
The map display is also faster in many cases now, especially when |
12 |
|
doing classifictions. |
13 |
|
|
14 |
|
The renderes have a mechanism to define how new layer classes defined |
15 |
|
in extensions can be rendered (see the new wms extension for an |
16 |
|
example) |
17 |
|
|
18 |
|
- Added a few extensions in the Extensions sub-directory. Most of them |
19 |
|
are experimental to varying extents. Note that the binary packages |
20 |
|
might not contain all of these extensions. |
21 |
|
|
22 |
|
- gns2shp |
23 |
|
|
24 |
|
Convert GNS (GEOnet Names Server) files to shapefiles. See |
25 |
|
Extensions/gns2shp/gns2shp.py for more information |
26 |
|
|
27 |
|
- wms |
28 |
|
|
29 |
|
Use thuban as WMS client. See Extensions/wms/wms.py for more |
30 |
|
information |
31 |
|
|
32 |
|
- importAPR |
33 |
|
|
34 |
|
Import a ArcView project file (.apr) and convert it to Thuban. |
35 |
|
|
36 |
|
- profiling |
37 |
|
|
38 |
|
For developers: perfomance measurement for the rendering code. |
39 |
|
See Extensions/profiling/profiling.py for details. |
40 |
|
|
41 |
|
- drawshape |
42 |
|
|
43 |
|
This is a *very experimental* and potentially *dangerous* extension |
44 |
|
to add shapes to a shapefile. Be careful with it as it may lead to |
45 |
|
data loss. For more information, see Extensions/drawshape/README |
46 |
|
|
47 |
|
- A new command line option --enable-attribute-editing, which when |
48 |
|
given turns on editing of attribute values in the identify view. It |
49 |
|
only works on layers whose attribute data is stored in DBF files. |
50 |
|
This experimental and may lead to data loss, so be careful when using |
51 |
|
it. |
52 |
|
|
53 |
|
- EPSG projections |
54 |
|
|
55 |
|
Thuban now comes with two .proj files containing EPSG projections |
56 |
|
(epsg.proj and epsg-deprecated.proj in Resources/Projections/). These |
57 |
|
projections can be shown in the dialog with the new check boxes under |
58 |
|
"Show EPSG". |
59 |
|
|
60 |
|
- Context menu in the legend window |
61 |
|
|
62 |
|
The legend window now has a context menu for most of the layer |
63 |
|
commands |
64 |
|
|
65 |
|
- Localization updates |
66 |
|
|
67 |
|
The localization is now done with wxWindow's localization support and |
68 |
|
thus deals automatically with character encoding transformations and |
69 |
|
the standard dialogs are also translated properly if the wxWindows |
70 |
|
.mo files are installed |
71 |
|
|
72 |
|
Updated translations for French and Spanish contributed by Daniel |
73 |
|
Calvelo. Updated German translation |
74 |
|
|
75 |
|
- PostGIS improvements |
76 |
|
|
77 |
|
- Quote table and columns names properly. |
78 |
|
|
79 |
|
- The dialog deals better with duplicate connections (e.g. trying to |
80 |
|
create a new connection when there already is a connection for the |
81 |
|
same database) |
82 |
|
|
83 |
|
- Files written with the Windows version of Thuban can now be read by |
84 |
|
the unix version. The other way round was already possible. |
85 |
|
|
86 |
|
- The shapefile handling code now uses shapelib 1.2.10 |
87 |
|
|
88 |
|
- Thuban should work without problems and warnings with Python 2.3 now. |
