Add text to each animation slide based on the result of a query on a vector layer

[landam]

Reported by bhlevca on 26 Mar 2014 17:09 UTC I would need that the animation tool would be able to handle automated text addition to each slide as opposed to manual addition of the same text to all the slides

For example: We end up with a set of raster layers that were the result of a succession of interpolations from a vector point layer such as in a climate map.

• Each raster layer was created based on a value extracted from the point layer.
• At the same time to each temperature value in the point vector layer there is a corresponding text time stamp.

It would be helpful to be able to extract the string from the vector layer corresponding to each slide and attach it at export time.

If a GUI feature would be too complex to build at least a hook that would let a script do something to attach the text on each separate slide could be a first step. The script itself would be responsible to extract the text information. The GUI would only have to apply the text provided by the script to each slide.

This would be useful to create a time lapse movie when we deal with regular raster layers and not with space-time layers. Thanks
