d.vect wx module GUI forgets column names

[hamish]

Hi, I notice if I add a new vector layer and in the symbol tab of the d.vect pop up GUI I set the symbol size_col and rotation_col options to column names, it works ok, but then if I go back to the vector layer -> preferences and the symbol tab again the given column names are gone & forgotten. If I press apply or ok a second time the map re-renders and those settings are lost.

happens in all branches, e.g. for any points map: cat, cat, and size=1.

(trying that for a line map [m.cogo import example] without a db connection or cat number for the line ends up in a traceback error)

I also notice an error in trunk that the drop down menu for the column names is empty, but I can manually type "cat" there and it works.

? thanks, Hamish

Please test again, the column problem should be fixed. Please be more specific about the other problems, include the traceback error.

tested in trunk, now remembers size_col and rotation_column. thanks. drop down menu and no-db issues also seem to be fixed.

during testing it's still printing a traceback error to the terminal though:

(wxgui.py:3206): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_layout_get_cursor_pos: assertion `index >= 0 && index <= layout->length' failed

Replying to hamish:

so I am closing this ticket as fixed

Usually, this is harmless. It's not easy to fix this, so if you consider this as a problem open a new ticket (with minor priority).
