XY to line: layers present but lines missing upon re-open #15

Closed SimonDedman closed 6 years ago

SimonDedman commented 6 years ago

Added delimited text points layer and created line using XY to line successfully. Saved project, closed, reopened (next day) and layers still present but lines missing. Please see (boring) attachments. npc streamline minmaxav shape plugin bug

@SimonDedman Shape Tools uses memory layers which are not saved by default. You need to save them or install the Memory Layer Saver plugin. Perhaps I should make that more clear in the documentation.

http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/MemoryLayerSaver/

Eventually, I plan on moving these functions to processing in which case it will give more options on how to save them.

Hi again, for sure would be good to let users know; I didn't even know about memory layers until now!
