graduated classes are altered when saved to qgs

Description

confirmed on both 1.8 and master dc074b3.

when classifying continuous numerical data (shp - field type; real ; length 20; precision 5) , classes are generated correctly, but are saved with exponents notation if data exceeds 1000000:
In the following example, the last classe upper value has been converted from 6 034 292 to 6.03429e+06.
real max value is then thrown out of classes because 6.03429e+06 is converted to 6 034 29*0* when project is reloaded.
All the values close to upper and lower bounds are potentially concerned.

This is a blocker since there is no way to save a project correctly, except modifying classes by hand in a text editor.

History

#1 Updated by Regis Haubourg over 11 years ago

QML and mapinfo tab are also concerned

#2 Updated by Regis Haubourg over 11 years ago

It could be simple to solve since same problem occured with WMS bounds and scales:
here are some revisions solving thoses problems: [[https://issues.qgis.org/search/index/quantum-gis?q=exponential]]

#3 Updated by Regis Haubourg over 11 years ago

conversion to Double seems to be done here:
[[https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/blob/master/src/core/symbology-ng/qgsgraduatedsymbolrendererv2.cpp]]
line 888:
double lowerValue = rangeElem.attribute( "lower" ).toDouble();
double upperValue = rangeElem.attribute( "upper" ).toDouble();

use of .toDouble seems to be done everywhere. Any idea ?

  • Pull Request or Patch supplied changed from No to Yes
  • File fix_7217.patchMagnifier added
  • Category changed from Map Legend to 83

Here is patch that should fix such issue. Unfortunately, I can't test it with wide range of datasets, so maybe in some cases it still don't work as expected.

#5 Updated by Regis Haubourg over 11 years ago

Hi, a little up to commiters: Can anyone test before merge ? This might be a easy-to-solve blocker ;-)
(I can't compile by myself and can only test ith osge4w).

#6 Updated by Nathan Woodrow over 11 years ago

Can we confirm if this still and issue. I can't reproduce here.

#7 Updated by Mathieu Pellerin - nIRV over 11 years ago

I can't reproduce this issue either. So what they say is true, time does heal ;o)

#8 Updated by Nathan Woodrow over 11 years ago

  • Resolution set to worksforme

Regis can you test with the latest build and report back if it is still an issue.

#9 Updated by Regis Haubourg over 11 years ago

Hi, there is no new build on osgeo4w today, I'll try next week (QGIS training by the end of the week!)

#10 Updated by Regis Haubourg over 11 years ago

Hi,
I must reopen, tested in e2bd04f today, problem is still here, qgs is still saved using scientific notation.
see:
<ranges>
<range symbol="0" lower="1" upper="3" label="1.0000 - 3.0000"/>
<range symbol="1" lower="3" upper="56" label="3.0000 - 56.0000"/>
<range symbol="2" lower="56" upper="1e+09" label="56.0000 - 1000000389.0000"/>
</ranges>

I join a very simple dataset to build unit tests:

Ok I see it. Will try and fix.

QVariant::toString() seems to return better results than QString::number(), doesn't it?

In python:

>>> from PyQt4.QtCore import *
>>> val = 6034292.
>>> QString.number(val)
PyQt4.QtCore.QString(u'6.03429e+06')
>>> QVariant(val).toString()
PyQt4.QtCore.QString(u'6034292')

>>> val = 1.000001
>>> QString.number(val)
PyQt4.QtCore.QString(u'1')
>>> QVariant(val).toString()
PyQt4.QtCore.QString(u'1.000001')

#13 Updated by Nathan Woodrow over 11 years ago

Seems so.

toString is the way to go.
