I am using the MergeShapes plugin with QGIS 1.8.0 on a Windows 7 computer. The issue I am having is when I perform a merge from a directory based on one geometry type, and then switch the geometry type to process a second time (ie: process all polygons in c:\Temp and then process lines in the same directory). This is a limitation when you need to preform multiple merges based on geometry. Any help would be appreciated. Below is the error from MergeShapes.

An error has occured while executing Python code:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/ryangarnett/.qgis//python/plugins\mergeshapes\mergeshapesdialog.py", line 141, in accept self.progressFiles.setRange( 0, self.inputFiles.count() ) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'count'

Python version: 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 15:08:59) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]

QGIS version: 1.8.0-Lisboa Lisboa, 6416f38

Have you tried other plugins such as the Merge Shape Layer function in mmqgis or the even respective function in the Qgis vector menu? – Curlew Dec 5 '12 at 20:21
Yes, I have tried them, with the same issue. – Ryan Garnett Dec 5 '12 at 20:24

Does it work if you restart the plugin between processing polygons and lines? If this is reproducible, it's probably best to file a bug report. – underdark♦ Dec 5 '12 at 20:54
Yes, that is what I have been doing. I as hoping there was an alternative. Maybe a ticket entry for this to be fixed for the next release? – Ryan Garnett Dec 5 '12 at 21:30
