Description
I have a PC with Windows 8 installed and there's a problem with Qgis Dufour. When I ask it to calculate the area or perimeter of a shapefile, through the field calculator, the result is an obviously wrong number - something like "27,800245e-05".
Then I uninstalled it and installed the Qgis 1.8 Lisboa, the same problem happens.
When I open the Dufour, an error shows on screen: "Microsoft Visual C++ Library: Runtime error - Program: C:\\PROGRA~1\\QGISDU~1\\bin\\qgis-bin.exe R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information.": I don`t know if it has something to do with it.
Regards,
Andre

Hi, here's the screen. My dufour is in portuguese, but take a look where it's written "previa de saida".
When I click "ok", the result shown is 0.

Olá, I speak Portuguese.
What I asked is a sample of your data to allow us make tests, not a screenshot. Cheers!

Hey, there goes an .shp archive. Plz check if it's what you asked. There's already a column with $area and another one with $perimeter.

your layer is in WGS84 and is very small, so it is not an issue the fact that the area and perimeter do show as a very small values. This if don't have the reprojection active, becase if you have it then in qgis 2.0.1 there is the issue that Bernd said (fixed in master).

Thanks for the feedback, but the problem isn't the fact of small values, it's the fact of showing wrong values. In my PC the value is either NULL or 0.00, when I know it should be much higher.
I don't know if that's a problem of Qgis or my windows 8.

the polygon is very small and in wgs84 (degrees), so values for area and perimeter are indeed expected as very small because are computed in degress
area 0.000058024008808
perimeter 0.033000000000000
the issue when using the FC with reprojection ON is already known and was fixed in qgis master.
