| Re: [udig-devel] Issues with re-projecting point shapefiles | 
Please send me the file.  I'll see what the story is with them and  
let you know.

Hi All,
I'm working with NAD83 Lon/Lat coordinate files that I'm turning  
into shapefile sets using the Maptools package in R (which is based  
on Shapelib). One problem is that Maptools does not create a *.prj  
file. To create one, I've both run the files through ogr2ogr to  
create them, and simply copied and renamed a file with the correct  
projection information from a line vector file that behaved  
properly in uDig. In both cases, uDig doesn't appear to be finding  
the projection information. Moreover, even when I specify the  
coordinate system in the layer properties for these point layers,  
when I re-project the map view into a UTM projection the points are  
not rendered.
I can send along the files for inspection. I'm running on uDig 1.1  
RC8 at the moment.
