Hi all,

I have pushed the implementation of the feature 'More options for browsing GIS data' to my repository and you can test it at the demo server[1].

With this, three options have been added to the ‘Options’ section of query result browsing window

  * To view geometric data in Well Known Text (WKT) format
  * To view geometric data in Well Known Binary (WKB) format
  * To view geometric data with Geometric type indication and size
    (e.g. [GEOMETRY – 2.2KiB])

You can use geometric data in the 'OpenGIS' database to test the feature. If the database is not there by the time you visit, please use the SQL file at [2] to generate the database. Your feedback is highly valued :)

Thanks in advance,

Madhura Jayaratne

Hi Madhura,

I'm not very familiar with GIS format so I can't really give you any feedback with that. All I noticed that might need to be looked at is the labels near the "Width", "Height", "Label Column" and "spatial Column" which are not correctly aligned vertically with respect to the input fields. Also it looks like you have hardcoded the width of these input fields, so sometimes they are unnecessarily pushed down onto a new row, though I'm not sure about what is the best way to handle that.

Hi Rouslan,

Thanks for you feedback. However you are looking at the feature 'Visualizing GIS data', which I have not yet finalized. Sure, I will look into the alignment problem. I believe you are seeing it with the theme pmahomme.

I have'nt looked closely, but one thing struck me - please add space before units in "[GEOMETRY – 2.2KiB]", seeing "2KiB" may look ok, but "2bytes" is just wrong :)

Hi Piotr,

Thank you for your comment.

Displaying the text 'GEOMETRY' and size next to it was the default way the geometry data were displayed and I did not make any alterations to it. I only added the other two types (WKT and WKB). Looking into it a bit I noticed that a similar way is used for BINARY and BLOB.

Further 2 bytes are displayed as 2B.
