QGIS only sees the First Row in the DBF file

QGIS only sees the First Row in the DBF file

fairport opened this issue 2 years ago · comments

Hi

I am having issues with the DBF file created using this code. It is read perfectly by https://www.dbfopener.com/
but when I check in QGIS only 1 row shows.
Importing the SHP into google earth pro works (as in the info window shows all the data that is in the dbf table).

SHP, DBF, etc in the attached zip file

Any ideas?
ShapeExport (3).zip

I just tried with dbfopener.com with no luck... if you ever determined the exact issue, can you provide more details? Otherwise, we'll go ahead and close this issue.

Close it if you like ... But the problem is always there. (see another example in the attached image)
dbfopener shows all rows, QGIS shows 1
I have managed to convinced the other party to use our exported GeoJSON files in QGIS instead. It shows all rows of data..
BUT it insists on converting every polygon to a Multipolygon when it exports GeoJSON! ... which blows up our GeoJSON importer.

Okay, sounds good. Without more technical details it will probably take me some time to get around to this one, but I'll keep it open!
