[GRASS-dev] Why can't I edit a contour line

I made some contour lines with r.contour. AFAIK, these are vector lines. But I cannot edit them in the digitizer. When I click on a vertex, nothing happens. I can make and edit other lines, but not contour lines. No error in the console either. Anyone know why?

I’m using GRASS 7 compiled yesterday.

Hi All,

Hi Rashad!

i.pca outputs raster bands and the pixel values are transformed obivously.
But anyone can tell me how the transformation works

if a pixel P1 has value X after i.pca it will be Y

Is there any specific math equation that is applied to every pixel by PCA?

For sure. There are two good grassy-sources to start with:

  1. the i.pca’s manual
    i.pca - GRASS GIS manual

2.the GRASS-Wiki page explains all one needs to know – even if it requires
some clean-up
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Principal_Components_Analysis

And, of course (sorry for insisting and self-advertising) my work (available
at the link I’ve PMed to you). I’ve put a lot of effort to compile material &
explain what PCA is, what it does and how it does it. It would be really
nice, for me, to have some feedback if it helps, in any way, to understand
PCA.

If you had a look and found the material useless, please, be so kind and tell
me so – strait (PM or ML, the same). I’d really like to know what you think
as I am planing to continue this effort in time, and expand it.

Best, Nikos

I did what I describe(d) above and, with the help of AnnaK, we got the GUI
running.

Yes, 2.7 and 2.9. It may be that it bears other, non-desired, sideeffects or
dangers (?). However, I never really use OS-X and since the GUI is launching,
we can go bug-hunting.

Comment(by hamish):

Replying to [ticket:1874 pvanbosgeo]:

Note that points created with v.random do no show a bias.
However, this is not really an alternative for creating
random points within a irregular area.

the v.random.cover addon script for grass 6 exists to do that.
AddOns/GRASS 6 - GRASS-Wiki

‘’ v.random.cover is a shell script for creating random points constrained
within an irregularly shaped vector area. (v.random places points only in
current region rectangle). Optionally the user can upload raster values at
the points. See also ‘r.random cover= vector_output=’ ‘’

It’s internal method is not especially efficient, but it gets the job done
all the same.

That’s very good that wxPython 2.9 runs. My hope has been that with a bit of tweaking it would work. So I’m glad that you’ve had time to try it out. Thanks much.

keep in mind that the shared VM that it is run on is generally
under considerable load (but not at capacity), and anything extra

Silly idea: is it in the same mapset?

I simply made the default contour line with r.contour.
