QGIS » SEXTANTE

Checked, now when clicking on "Use layer/canvas extent" I get: ===
"/home/paolo/.qgis//python/plugins/sextante/gui/ExtentSelectionPanel.py", line 47, in useLayerExtent
extentsDict[str(layer.name())] = layer.extent()
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xa4' in position 30: ordinal not in range(128)

Python version:
2.7.3rc2 (default, Apr 22 2012, 22:50:19)
[GCC 4.6.3]

QGIS version:
1.9.0-Master Master, 42aed66 ===

BTW, when I click on the Resolution button, I get: ===
File "/home/paolo/.qgis//python/plugins/sextante/gui/NumberInputPanel.py", line 32, in showNumberInputDialog
dlg = NumberInputDialog()
File "/home/paolo/.qgis//python/plugins/sextante/gui/NumberInputDialog.py", line 12, in init
self.setupUi()
File "/home/paolo/.qgis//python/plugins/sextante/gui/NumberInputDialog.py", line 24, in setupUi
self.fillTree()
File "/home/paolo/.qgis//python/plugins/sextante/gui/NumberInputDialog.py", line 49, in fillTree
layerItem.setText(0, str(layer.name()))
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xa4' in position 30: ordinal not in range(128)

It seems there is a problem with layers with non-ascii characters. should be fixed in r320

Also selecting a layer with characters non ascii from "Use extent from" combo I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/sam/.qgis//python/plugins/sextante/gui/ExtentSelectionPanel.py", line 114, in useLayerExtent
    item = str(item)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2192' in position 3: ordinal not in range(128)

I also got an error when choosing a raster layer, in this case on Windows (not yet tested it on Linux):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/pedro/.qgis//python/plugins\sextante\gui\ExtentSelectionPanel.py", line 115, in useLayerExtent

sorry, minor mistake. fixed in r322

I confirm the resolution!

Thanks Victor!

I keep on getting (r322):

mmm...even I keep on getting:

by clicking on [Canvas] option in combo box!

[I begin to hate seriously non-ASCII characters :-(]

Paolo

I do not think you are updated. The line you report was changed in 320. You can see it here

https://code.google.com/p/sextante/source/diff?spec=svn322&r=320&format=side&path=/trunk/soft/bindings/qgis-plugin/src/sextante/gui/NumberInputDialog.py&old_path=/trunk/soft/bindings/qgis-plugin/src/sextante/gui/NumberInputDialog.py&old=119

now it uses unicode instead of str (as in the code you supplied, which is from a revision < 320)

Salvatore, I also hate non-ascii characters...they are quite annoying when it comes to fix bugs... I have, however, just fixed the one you reported (r323)

Sorry, my mistake, solved very nicely. I still have problems with non-UTF8 chars, but this would deserve a different ticket:

'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xa4' in position 56: ordinal not in range(128)
