QGIS 5 Setup styles
Last Modified: Dec 2024
Hah! not finished setting up. The style‐file downloads have some specific directions.
Install font
With the style‐files downloaded, a font called ‘OS_VMDistrict’ needs to be installed. On Linux, move the font to
~/.fonts
or
~/.local/share/fonts)
Refresh the font cache,
fc-cache -vf'
If you’ve got a font‐viewer go have a look. In my case I found the font contained a selection of policemen’s hats and London Underground symbols. Near useless. Annoying.
Set background color (for layers)
Launch QGIS. Change background color. Like this,
Project > Properties > General > Background color > #fcfcfa (off-white)
Save this as a Project, someplace.
End of setup styles
Did it take that long to reach data load?
