"S" keyboard command not working to save results

[rtfraser86]

Cannot get the S button to work as the keyboard command to save results. Have it working on another PC. Installed exactly the same. Running QGIS 3.36.1.

Hi @rtfraser86 ,

Sorry for the late reply. This bug is likely not related to the version of QGIS. Shortcuts only work when the plugin is in focus. Therefore, before using any shortcuts, you can click on the plugin to ensure it is active. If this approach does not resolve the issue, consider directly downloading the latest code from the main branch and replacing the existing code.

Hi @Fanchengyan - I can get ctrl+z to work, just not S. Plugin is in focus. Using QGIS 3.36.0 and .1 (2 different computers)

Hi @rtfraser86 ,

Which version of Geo-SAM are you currently using? The latest code from the main branch should work properly.

Hello,

I have the same problem as described by @rtfraser86.

All shortcuts work fine, apart from the "S"-Saving-Shortcut. Tried it out on different versions of QGIS (3.36 and 3.38) and Geo-SAM, including the latest from the main branch.

Has a solution been found for this problem?

Thank you for your help in advance.

P.S.: Following the plugin window in QGIS, where you can activate/deactivate all plugins, Geo-SAM's version always keeps being 1.0, even when 1.1.1 or 1.3 is installed. Is this correct (maybe it's a hint to solve the problem)?

Thank you

Is the new plugin like this? The latest version of the toolbar only has one row.

Hi @Fanchengyan,

thank you for your fast reply.

Yes, it looks exactly the same.

Hi @Segmentoholic

What conditions trigger the issue? I can't pin the problem as it runs normally on Windows/Mac/Linux. Does the issue still occur after creating a new shapefile following SAM Output Layer or File?

[Segmentoholic]

Hi @Fanchengyan,

conditions are: Win 11, QGIS 3.38, Geo-SAM 1.3.

I'm saving the generated segmentation results as polygons into a geopackage layer. In this set-up, "S" shortcut is not working.
Saving via clicking the "Save" button works fine. But when doing so, you always have to click on your map/tif/layer in the main window first before you are able to move it again and continue segmenatation. So with the "S" shortcut, segmentation work would be even faster.

I also tried to save segmentation results into shp layer and the self-created "polygon_sam" layer, but there same problem is occuring.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @Segmentoholic

In fact, we only designed it to be stored in shapefile format. When we tried to expand to other formats, we found that many operations supported by shapefile format were not supported in QGIS. We haven't done in-depth research on geopackage, so I suggest you save it in shapefile format to complete the segmentation, and then convert it to geopackage format.

[Segmentoholic]

Hi @Fanchengyan,

thank you for the insight, but unfortunately in shapefile format the problem persists.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but when all other shortcuts are working I guess "S"-Shortcut should do as well (and plugin should be in focus then). But saving shortcut is still not running, unfortunately.

Thank you for your help in advance.

update:

Got it into work with geopackage on a different, but almost equal PC. Only difference was QGIS version (3.34 instead of 3.38).
But trying it out with 3.34 on the "problem PC" still leads to disfunction of saving shortcut. 🤷‍♂️

solved:

Snapping Toolbar captured "S" before Geo-SAM could.
Disabling this toolbar solved the problem.

Thank you again
