I'm trying to use QuickOSM to find some items within the extents of a polygon layer, but every time I run a query with the "extent of a layer" radio box checked, QGIS immediately closes. This happened with every layer I tried, in several different coordinate systems. (Using the map canvas extents worked the way I expected it to.)

I did a little searching, but the closest I came to my problem was this bug report, which was resolved in 2014.

Is there still a problem with layer extents in QuickOSM, or if not, can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Am I using older, or incompatible, versions of QGIS or QuickOSM?

(The versions I'm using are QGIS 2.18.0 on Linux Mint 17.3, and QuickOSM plugin version is 1.4.5.)

  • Same crash here. It seems that extent of a layer is not implemented as expected. You should re-report the issue on Github.

  • I opened a new issue on their GitHub site, we'll see what they say.

  • A strange development: I was having trouble using pyuic4 (different project), and eventually commented out the lines for sip.setapi() in QTCore.py. After doing that the QuickOSM plugin would run the query with extents from a layer, but "generate query" still crashes.

  • I just tested with QGIS 2.18.1 on Windows and Linux Mint, and it works as expected.

  • I upgraded to 2.18.1 recently as well @AndreJ, maybe that (rather than messing with setapi) was what made the difference for me as well.

This was a bug in QuickOSM. Thanks for the bug report https://github.com/3liz/QuickOSM/issues/88 This has been fixed in the plugin. You should update your plugin in QGIS.
