Fill Operation

Creates a new features using the boundary of polygons and the provided LineStrings

The Fill Operation takes the features from the Source layer and uses the LineString features from the second layer to fill them.

The result of the Fill Operation could be stored on a new layer, on an existent layer or on the previously used source layer.

Sample Usage

On this example we are going to do a fill operation with the polygon layer edificios.shp and the lineString layer carre1.shp and the resultant features will be added to the edificios.shp layer.


Figure 1. Before operation.

Go to the Spatial Operations View, and select Fill from the Operations list .
The Fill Operation's specific input options will show up.

Now is time to indicate the operation's inputs, as shown in Figure 2:


Figure 2. Define input and target layers.


Figure 3. Progress dialog.

Shows the newly created Layer (Fill_1) added to the map, with the Features resulting of applying the Fill operation between the Source layer and the Second layer.
