Shared local datasets¶
In a QField project it is possible to use a layer outside the project folder, like a basemap.
It is useful if a basemap is used in all your project, no need to copy it everytime in the project folder.
Adicionar um camada fora da pasta do projeto exportado¶
Desktop preparation
In QGIS, open Options > Data Sources > Localized Data Paths. There add the path to the folder where are the external data.
To make it works in the device, add the layers in the folder <drive>:/Android/data/ch.opengis.qfield/files/QField/basemaps
.
Note
Since QField 2 the basemaps files needs to be stored in the app directory <drive>:/Android/data/ch.opengis.qfield/files/QField/basemaps
instead of the devices main directory <drive>:/QField/basemaps
.
