The syntax of the d.vect command has changed slightly between version
6.2.1 and the latest 6.3.cvs versions (as of january 30 and later). In
6.3.cvs, I cannot execute succesfully a vector file display, nor from
the gis.m shell nor from the command line, whereas from 6.2.1 (and
former 6.3.cvs versions), the vector files display well.
The d.vect command of both versions and an example of error messages is
given here:
version 6.2.1
d.vect [-vacix] map=name [type=string[,string,...]]
[display=string[,string,...]] [attrcol=string] [icon=string]
[size=integer] [layer=integer] [cats=range] [where=sql_query]
[width=integer] [wcolumn=string] [wscale=float] [color=string]
[fcolor=string] [rgb_column=string] [llayer=integer] [lcolor=string]
[bgcolor=string] [bcolor=string] [lsize=integer] [font=string]
[xref=string] [yref=string] [minreg=float] [maxreg=float]
version 6.3.1
d.vect [-vacix] output=name map=name [display=string[,string,...]]
[attrcol=string] [icon=string] [size=integer] [type=string[,string,...]]
[cat=integer] [where=sql_query] [width=integer] [wcolumn=string]
[wscale=float] [color=string] [fcolor=string] [rgb_column=string]
[llayer=string[,string,...]] [lcolor=string] [bgcolor=string]
[bcolor=string] [lsize=integer] [font=string] [xref=string]
[yref=string] [minreg=float] [maxreg=float] [--overwrite] [--verbose]
[--quiet]
example:
d.vect map=paguirre2006base6 color=0:0:0 lcolor=0:0:0 fcolor=170:170:170
display=shape type=point,line,boundary,centroid,area icon=basic/circle
size=5 layer=1 lsize=8 xref=left yref=center llayer=1
Sorry, <layer> is not a valid parameter
Error: value <paguirre2006base6> out of range for parameter <map>
Legal range: point,line,boundary,centroid,area,face
Error: value <1> out of range for parameter <llayer>
Legal range: point,line,boundary,centroid,area
ERROR: Required parameter <output> not set:
(Name for output vector map).
Description:
Displays GRASS vector data in the active frame on the graphics monitor.
Keywords:
display
Any clue or fix out there?
