RE: [udig-devel] How to specify which geometry column to use
|
I'll try that. As far as a clean visual way. The way QGIS does it
seems fairly clean. They simply list out all the geometry fields in the
database as if they were separate tables. I think udig relies on
geometry_columns table, but in uDig way, list out all the geometry
fields listed in geometry_columns table.
They do something like
buildings (the_geom_m)
buildings (the_geom_ft)
Where the_geom_m and the_geom_ft are two separate geometry fields I have
in the buildings table.
Hope that helps,
Regina

Right now there is not a "clean" way to do it - you can go into the
style editor and look at the xml; and then specify what geometry is
being styled....
This can be added to any Symbolizer:
> <Geometry>
> <ogc:PropertyName>centerline</ogc:PropertyName>
> </Geometry>
(When left out the renderer assumes something)
And yes XML is not fun at all; can you think of a nice visual way to do
this sort of thing?
If you wanted something quick make a StyleConfigurator page that and let
users place a use a check box next to the Geometry being styled.
A nice long term solution would be that when adding the data to the
screen from a tree; the data entry has children; one child for each "non
default" geometry.
