How to create a circular polygon in QGIS?
Docs » QGIS User Guide » 23.1.15.57. Rectangles, ovals, diamonds (variable) Consider also using “Geometry Generator” which contains a function make_circle ($geometry, 100), see image below. Creates a circular polygon. make_circle (center,radius [,segment=36]…) segment optional argument for polygon segmentation. By default, this value is 36
How do you select a vertex in a feature in QGIS?
With activating the Node Tool on a feature, QGIS opens the Vertex Editor panel listing all the vertices of the feature with their x, y (z, m if applicable) coordinates and r (for the radius, in case of circular geometry). Simply select a row in the table does select the corresponding vertex in the map canvas, and vice versa.
How to select and copy group of polygons in QGIS?
From the User Guide (version 1.7.0) in chapter 4.5.1 it was suggested that I should change the tolerance in “Settings” > “Options” > “Digitizing” and I changed from 0.00000 to 1.00000. It was also suggested to edit “Settings” > “Snapping options” so I changed the tolerance to the same value there.
How to draw different geometries in QGIS Python?
While developing a standalone qgis application, I shot help from QGIS Python Plugins Repository many times and it is very helpful. For drawing different geometries like Rectangle, Circle, Oval and Ellipse etc. this plugin is of great help. Thanks for contributing an answer to Geographic Information Systems Stack Exchange!
How to convert a polygon to a centroid?
The workflow I have recently been using is to create the point in a Memory Layer, create the buffer into a shapefile saved in a temporary location, then copy and paste the polygon into the final layer. A bit long but works OK. With mmqgis plugin you can convert your geometry type to centroids :
How to add polygons to the attribute table?
Adds the specified field of the polygons layer to the attribute table of the points layer. The new attributes added for each point depend on the value of the background polygon layer. Points layer. Background polygons layer. Attribute of the polygons layer that will be added to the points layer.
Where to find geometry shapes plug in in QGIS?

How to draw a circle with a radius?
With mmqgis plugin you can convert your geometry type to centroids : And then just create buffers on shapes ( through Vector > Geoprocessing tools) and precise the desired radius. I did something similar – need to draw 5km circles around a set of points meeting some criteria. I solved the problem using styles: Voila! A range ring at true map scale.
How does QGIS allow you to reproject data on the fly?
QGIS allows you to reproject data “on the fly”. What this means is that even if the data itself is in another CRS, QGIS can project it as if it were in a CRS of your choice. To enable “on the fly” projection, click on the CRS Status button in the Status Bar along the bottom of the QGIS window:
