WCS Styles Not handled for in QGIS Project #103

Open jj0hns0n opened 10 years ago

Trying to follow this workflow:

Add a raster layer from GeoServer to the QGIS Project
Create a style for that raster layer with the QGIS Tools
Publish that style back to the GeoServer and apply it to the layer.

It seems that the layer is added as a WCS layer and then WCS Styles are not handled for in the QGIS project tree.

I was able to work around this by downloading the layer as a tiff, styling that and then publishing, but it would be nice to jsut work against the WCS directly.

Not a bug, it is actually a known limitation. QGIS handles SLD only for vector layers. The plugin has code to do the QGIS->SLD export for raster layers, but not for going the other way round, since that is more complex and we have left that out.

This limitation is documented in the docs
