Hi Jukka,
Thank you for your answer, I was almost sure that Beanshell Attribute
Calculator can handle it with some awkward syntax. Do we already have
documentation about Attribute Calculator or could you create for example an
empty page into wiki as a bookmark?

The road example is like reverse engineering the resultu of dynamic
segmentation which has materialized by splitting the segments physically and
thus is might be of some general interest. OpenStreetMap road data fits also
this definition. By dropping unnecessary tags the number of linestrings could
be decreased by intelligent merging.

How about having two options for the unused attibutes: Aggregate unused
attributes/Discard unused attributes. The latter would remove the unused
columns from the schema of the new union layer. What I have in my mind is to
cut down file size by cutting down the number of features and by removing
unnecessary attributes. Of course the latter is quite easy to do from "Edit
Schema".

Hi Jukka,
As you guessed, I generally solve this kind of problem with a calculated
attribute.
There are a few things to know for that.
For numeric attributes, you can do as you suggested : 100*A + B
For string attributes, use + to concatenate attributes and don't omit to add a
separator : A + ";" + B
If your expression starts with "", + will concatenate fields, even numerics :
"" + 1 + 2 -> 12
So the following expression should work in almost all cases
"" + A + ";" + B
(did not check for dates)
Accepting several attributes in the union/dissolve user interface would be
nice, but
it needs some more work (especially if we want to be able to add/remove fields
from the dialog in order to manage any number of attributes).
Please, add a Feature Request for that.

Interesting use case Jukka. Let me think about how this might work as a plug-in.

Hi Landon,
My case last week was about parcel IDs and landuse codes and aim was to union
areas so that polygons with same landuse and belonging to same owner would make
one polygon.
For another use see attached images and source data in Jump JML format. Data
could present two highways with ref. IDs "100" and "200". Both highways have
sections with speed limits "60" and "80". Aim is to merge segment of highway
"100" with speed limit "80" together etc.
Image one: Original segmented data
Image two: Desired end result. Notice an extra: Highway "100" has speed limit
"60" in two distinct places. I do not want them to be combined into
multilinestring. OJ can handle this case with two subsequent operations: Merge
selected features + Explode selected features.

Can you give me some more details on the actual union you are trying to
accomplish? What do you integer attributes represent?
Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to union features by two or perhaps more attributes. I wonder if
the current Union/Dissolve/Merge tool could be developed to support the use of
combined classes. In my use case I have two integer attributes which define the
classes and it is a bit tricky to calculate a new concatenated field from
those. Perhaps it is possible to do with the Beanshell Attribute Calculator but
it is not obvious for me how. An example: I have two integer attributes and I
would like to concatenate their values to one field which I would like to use
for merging later. If the attribute values are A=80 and B=20, how could I
conbine them into "80-20" or something like that? Well, in this case I could do
(100xA)+B=8020 but what to do if I had also strings to concatenate as A=80 and
B=true? I can do the task fine with Spatialite but it would be a bit more
fluent to do everything with OpenJUMP.
