Open a project
|

==============
|
||||
|
||||
Can we reuse an existing / pre-installed .qgs project? where from?
|
||||
You can open any QGIS project with QField.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Click the `Open local file` button
|
||||
#. Open the `qgis-examples` folder
|
||||
#. Click the `QGIS-Itasca-Example.qgz` project file to open the project

Navigation
|
||||
==========
|
||||
|
||||
- pan by holding n dragging
|
||||
- zooming with mouse wheel
|
||||
- rotating by holding middle click down
|
||||
- mention touch interaction
|
||||
You can navigate on the map by
|
||||
|
||||
#. Pan: hold and drag the mouse cursor or by moving your finger on a touch screen
|
||||
#. Zoom: with the mouse wheel or with the zoom buttons. On a touch screen it is also possible to use pinch gestures
|
||||
#. Rotate: by holding the middle mouse button down or by rotating on the screen with two fingers on a touch screen
|
||||
|
||||
Please keep in mind that the interaction design for QField was always done with touch screens in mind
|
||||
and is therefore best served on a touch screen.
|
||||
|
||||
Basic canvas interaction
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
ie feature identification
|
||||
You can identify features by clicking on them.
|
||||
In the itasca project, there are multiple layers identifiable, so you will get results from multiple layers, in this case here "airports" and "County Boundaries".
|
||||
|
||||
Edit mode
|
||||
To inspect the attributes of one of the features, click on the feature in the identification panel.
|
||||
You will see all attributes of this feature appear.

Edit Data
|

=========
|
||||
|
||||
How to switch to edit mode
|
||||
Drigitize a point
|
||||
By default, QField opens in read only mode and you are not able to make any changes to the data.
|
||||
To go into digitize mode:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Click the hamburger menu on the top left corner, so you see the legend.
|
||||
#. Click the pencil switch to go into digitize mode.

|
||||
|
||||
Next, we will create a new airport.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Activate the airports layer by clicking on the `airports` layer
|
||||
#. Close the layer panel
|
||||
#. You will see a crosshair appear. This will follow your mouse or stay in the center of the screen if you are working with a touch screen.
|
||||
#. If you have a mouse: click to create a new airport.
|
||||
#. If you have a touchscreen, move the map until the crosshair is on the desired location and click the plus button at the bottom right of the screen to create a point.
|
||||
#. A panel appears, where you can enter all the desired attributes for the new airport
|
||||
#. Click the checkbox to confirm the new airport.
|
||||
#. The data is saved immediately.
|
||||
|
||||
Things to try
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
Create your own project using QGIS
|
||||
Download link for the QField sample data for more inspiration
|
||||
#. Show and hide a layer via the layer options (long click in the legend)
|
||||
#. On the legend panel, check the cog wheel symbol for more actions like measuring and printing
|
||||
#. Download the `QField sample projects`_ for more inspiration
|
||||
