| May 29, 2020 at 9:52 | comment | added | Martin | I converted all my Multipolygons to Ploygons in The GEOTIF gis changed them back after some time had occured I presume therefore this is what they should all be now | |

| Jan 22, 2017 at 2:44 | comment | added | Kazuhito | @Vince As to the latter part of your comment, is it that I do not have to worry about single- or multi-, as far as I am going to save the layer as shapefile to disk? | |
| Jan 22, 2017 at 2:37 | comment | added | Kazuhito | @Vince Thanks. I added a recent experience in which I needed to choose one of them. Not sure if this simplistic example makes any sense. | |

| Jan 22, 2017 at 2:20 | comment | added | Vince | You haven't provided enough information to help you choose. Please edit the question to specify what the scratch layer is due to contain. Note that the book is misleading, in that shapefiles don't store multi-type geometries; instead they just do not make a distinction between single- and multi-part lines or polygons. | |
