When i save the features, they end up across the planet for whatever reason. If I try to make the atlis off the original one it has too many pages I don't want, if I delete the extra features the atlist breaks.
If you have time, plz help me. I'm getting one problem that I can't get correct grid length even I put 120m in Horizontal spacing and Vertical spacing. When I measure, it was only about 114m.
I was searching a solution for same issue and I found some. This is little bit tricky, maybe there is another simple solution but I don't know yet. Maybe you can use my method. All you have to do is thinking grid number as a matrix which size of m by n. m is row number and n is column number. Then open attribute table > click on "open field calculator" > create a new field that we want to use as a new grid number. And write the code below in expression window: ceil(@id/m)+((@id-1)%m)*n Write row number as m and column number as n. This formula creates a new serie of number from id's. In this way, grid numbers increase from left to right.
Great work..! By using these grids can you do batch layout generation in PDF format. I.e, if i want to take print of the data in 50 grids to PDF, it is possible
I am using QGIS 2.4.0 (Chugiak), the options for grid creation little bit different. I can't create grid with specified size (e.g 500m X 500m). Can you solve this problem please ?
Thank you so much for the information. I want to ask something: This grids IDs are increasing from top to down. How can I set them to increase from left to right without manually by hand on attribute table, just like your Atlas Making video?
@@WiseGIS I'll keep it in my mind. If I found a solution, be sure I let you know. For now I'm using MS Excel or MATLAB to add a new field from using ID's. It's not so different to adding manually by hand but it works for now.
@@WiseGIS Hello again. I think over some matrices and coding and found a solution for this couple months ago. It is little bit tricky but not hard. All you have to do is thinking grid number as a matrix which size of m by n. m is row number and n is column number. Then open attribute table > click on "open field calculator" > create a new field that we want to use as a new grid number. And write the code below in expression window: ceil(@id/m)+((@id-1)%m)*n it bears repeating, write row number instead of m and column number instead of n. This formula will create a new serie of numbers from id numbers and it will be increase from left to right.
Thanks you so much! I spent a whole day trying to do this, and your video made it so easy!
Dude, this video and the atlas one just saved me hours of QGIS frustration. Great work!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for your valuable videos. I want to know if the grids we created can be rotated, and if so how?

did you use a UTM projection?
how to change that attribute order to horizontally instead of vertically after creating grid

yes.generate an atlas.check out my lesson on that

You may have. to upgrade your version to 3.0 or higher
Worth Watching before you create an atlas
What does the horizontal overlay and vertical overlay options mean??
i hope you found a solution
this mean grids overlay another grid which side of it. grid starts that much before previous grid's end, not right from end of it.

Create Indexed Vector Grid plugin
i hope you found a solution
