| Aug 13, 2015 at 11:32 | comment | added | Kyle Plattner | How do I get this into a shapefile with less than 10,000 polygons? This is what I'm trying to accomplish. | |
| Aug 12, 2015 at 19:58 | comment | added | Kurt | this sample is a point-shape-file (with more than 26 000 points). you cant use simplify geometry with points files, therefore you cant "open" it in the dialog-box | |

| Aug 12, 2015 at 18:20 | comment | added | Kurt | yes. strange - you should be able to use this line or ply shape for simplifying or is your shapefile a point.file???? | |
| Aug 12, 2015 at 17:08 | comment | added | Kyle Plattner | I opened a shapefile. Does that count as adding a vector layer? | |
| Aug 12, 2015 at 15:47 | comment | added | Kurt | Have you added any vector layer to the canvas? | |
| Aug 12, 2015 at 14:14 | comment | added | Kyle Plattner | So I was able to get the right modal to come up now but I still nothing happens when I click the drop down below 'Input line or polygon layer.' Consequently I still cannot perform a simplify action. | |
