0.13.0
- QGIS now connects through the browser-approved Mapdex connector flow
and
returns to the plugin without exposing or retyping credentials.
- Device approval opens on app.mapdex.ai, keeps the linked code
immutable,
and makes the account and consent steps explicit before access is
granted.
- Nivo onboarding now presents one clear provider choice at a time,
keeps
the chat at full available height, and separates starter prompts from
the
conversation instead of mixing them into assistant replies.
- New chat, history, stop, Settings and Open project controls use
consistent
icon-led actions and preserve their behavior across narrow and wide
docks.
- Development packages expose localhost API and web endpoints for
testing.
Production packages hide endpoint controls and stay pinned to hosted
Mapdex services.
0.12.4
- Fixes for what the plugin repository's own scan found on 0.12.3,
none of
which changes what the plugin does.
- Flat Qt5 enum names in three files would each have raised an error
on
QGIS 4, in branches no test opens: choosing a raster or vector layer,
deciding whether the layer you are digitizing into holds lines or
areas,
drawing the trace bands, suppressing the attribute form, and writing a
plan sheet. They now resolve on both Qt5 and Qt6.
- The catalogue query behind the PostGIS diagnostic is written out as
a
constant instead of assembled from pieces. Nothing user-supplied ever
reached it, but a query built by string formatting reads as an
injection
site whether or not it is one.
- Removed an unused import and tidied three lines the style check
flagged.
0.12.3
- Nivo could not finish a question that took more than one step. Every
measurement it made was written into the conversation as though Nivo
had
said it, so the moment one step ran the turn ended on Nivo's own voice
and
the model was asked to carry that sentence on rather than answer. What
came back was more of the sentence, which is not a decision, and the
turn
spent its steps arriving nowhere. The first question of a conversation
always worked, because nothing had been measured yet, so this looked
like
Nivo losing the thread on the follow-up.
- Work chosen on the last available step used to run anyway, so a
project
gained a layer that no answer accounted for. The last step now asks
for a
conclusion, and work arriving there is not started.
- A turn that measured nothing no longer offers "here is what I
measured so
far", and an answer written as a sentence rather than in the expected
form
is shown to you instead of being discarded.
- The panel no longer names your model vendor. It read "Asking
openai..."
for the length of a request, and a failed turn repeated the vendor's
own
error word for word. Which provider answers is a routing detail; a
failure
now says "your provider", and the settings panel remains the one place
that states where a turn goes.
0.12.2
- What you trace now looks like QGIS digitizing: the rubber band takes
its
colour and width from Settings > Digitizing instead of a hardcoded
blue
that matched neither your settings nor your map, an area being traced
is
drawn as an area with a fill, and the vertices are marked.
- The tool says how the shape ends, on every message rather than once
when
you start, and it tells you a click will close an area BEFORE the
click
does it.
- Fixed: rubber bands were emptied but never taken off the canvas, so
every
arm and disarm left one behind for the rest of the session.
0.12.1
- The tracer traces into whatever layer you have selected, and nothing
else. It no longer asks which geometry you meant or creates a layer of
its own: pick the layer you are digitizing into, pick the tracer, and
it
starts editing that layer for you.
0.12.0
- Shared boundaries are reused instead of traced twice. Where the edge
you
are following has already been digitized, the tracer follows that
geometry, so the two parcels share the same edge rather than two
near-identical ones a few pixels apart. That is where slivers and
overlaps came from.
- Your QGIS snapping now applies. A click that lands on an existing
vertex
or edge stays exactly there, and is not nudged onto the ink
afterwards.
- Areas close themselves. Click near where the shape started and the
ring
closes on that exact vertex and finishes.
- The tracer asks where the shapes should go before it arms: it offers
to
start editing the layer you have selected, and asks whether you are
tracing lines or areas when no layer can answer. It used to default to
a
line in silence, or put your work in a scratch layer you did not
choose.
- Fixed: taking back the only stretch in a shape left the next one
starting
from the point you had just removed.
0.11.4
- The tracer icon now has a light and a dark variant, chosen from the
actual interface palette rather than from a theme name, so it stays
visible on Night Mapping, on a custom theme, and when the operating
system darkens QGIS on its own.
0.11.3
- The tracer has its own toolbar icon. It shared the Mapdex mark with
the
panel button beside it, so the only way to tell the two apart was to
hover over them.
0.11.2
- Ctrl+Z now takes back the last traced stretch while you are tracing,
and
Ctrl+Shift+Z puts it back. It could not before: QGIS undo is a
main-window
shortcut and took the key first, so pressing it mid-shape undid a
feature
you had finished earlier instead. The tracer holds the key only while
the
canvas is armed and gives it straight back.
- Backspace and Delete do the same thing, as they do elsewhere in
QGIS.
- Escape is two steps: the first abandons the shape you are drawing
and
leaves the tracer on, the second closes the tracer.
- Undo with nothing traced in the current shape says so rather than
reaching back into your finished features.
0.11.1
- The tracer stayed armed only until you finished a shape. Digitizing
is a
hundred shapes in a row, so it now stays on until you press Escape or
the
button.
- Ctrl+Z removes a traced feature: it is added as one edit command
instead
of outside the undo stack.
- The attribute form opens after a trace, the way every other QGIS
digitizing tool does, honouring the suppress setting if you turned it
off.
Layer field defaults are applied.
- Zooming or panning mid-trace no longer leaves the preview following
a
line that has moved out from under the cursor.
0.11.0
- Vectorize with Mapdex: trace lines and areas on a scanned map
instead of
clicking along them. Click a drawn line and the tool follows it ahead
of
the cursor; click again to keep that stretch. Shift-click puts in a
straight segment where the trace is wrong, Backspace removes the last
stretch, Enter finishes. The shape goes into the layer you are
editing,
or becomes a new layer when you are not editing one.
- It runs on your machine. The scan is read from the layer already
open in
QGIS and searched locally, so nothing is uploaded, there is no
per-stroke
round trip, and it works on archives that may not leave your network.
No
Mapdex account and no credits are needed to use it.
- When a drawn line is too broken to follow, the tool says so and
offers
the straight segment rather than silently inventing one across the
gap.
- Mapdex now has its own toolbar with the panel and the tracer as
separate
buttons, instead of a single icon on the shared Plugins toolbar. Show
or
hide it under View > Toolbars.
- Tracer settings (Web > Mapdex > Tracer settings): snap distance, how
wide
a gap to bridge, smoothing, the ink-contrast floor, and light-on-dark
sheets.
0.10.3
- The upload scan blocked the plugin over a false positive: the
vendored nivo-gis commit sha (a 40-char hex string) read as a "high
entropy secret". Split into four short fields that reassemble to the
same sha; no provenance data changed.
0.10.2
- QGIS 4 Ready: scoped every PyQt6 enum the repository check flagged
(QgsFeatureRequest.Flag.NoGeometry, QgsWkbTypes.GeometryType.*) and
removed a raw PyQt5/PyQt6 import that must come only from qgis.PyQt.
0.10.1
- Your own model key is now used. With a provider configured the
assistant talks to it directly from QGIS: the turn does not pass
through Mapdex servers, and it needs no Mapdex account. A local Ollama
keeps the whole conversation on your machine.
- In that mode Nivo does everything QGIS and your saved PostGIS
connections do locally. Mapdex georeferencing, digitization,
validation, batch and review run on Mapdex, so they are not offered
inside a conversation that never contacts Mapdex; they still work from
the task panel with your account.
- A provider failure never becomes a Mapdex request on its own. You
are told what failed and asked whether to send the question to Mapdex
instead; nothing is sent unless you say yes.
- The Model field now shows the default it would use for the chosen
provider, instead of the word "default".
0.10.0
- Nivo can now analyse your data, not just drive the map: layer
profiles, descriptive statistics, histograms, category breakdowns,
ranking, outlier detection with a stated rule, group-by aggregation
and selection-vs-dataset comparison.
- Analysis lands on the map: results become a real feature selection
or a categorized/graduated renderer with a legend that states how its
classes were derived.
- Read-only PostGIS analytics in natural language. Your question
becomes a typed request that trusted code turns into a parameterised
SELECT; no SQL is generated by a model, and writes are refused.
- Multi-step objectives: Nivo inspects before it decides, chains the
steps an answer needs, and reports what it measured. A step it could
not complete is stated, not dropped.
- Store your own model key: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, any
OpenAI-compatible endpoint or a local Ollama. Keys live only in the
QGIS Authentication Manager and are never echoed back. The assistant
still runs through Mapdex on your plan; a stored key is not yet used
to reach that provider directly.
- Undo for reversible map changes: selection, visibility, opacity,
filters, labels and symbology restore their previous state.
- Distances respect the layer CRS. A metric distance on a geographic
layer is never silently applied in degrees.
- Fix: a greeting before a request ("selam, aktif katmana git") no
longer drops the turn into a generic workflow failure.
0.9.13
- Add Nivo, the QGIS companion chat for active-layer context,
reversible map actions and confirmed Processing operations.
- Add optimized Nivo avatar and loading animation assets to the dock.
0.9.12
- Clean the plugin repository scan: lint policy, narrowed exception
handling, no silent notice drops.
