Hi list -

I'm wondering about how to use embedded styling in certain types of file formats (like MapInfo Tab). I know its possible to read the embedded styling from a Tab fil and then convert it to a styling object in QGIS.

However, what about the other direction ? Take a specific QGIS style from the layer styling of a tab file, and and write the specific style into the feature, so it will be present if you later open the tab file in (gasp!) MapIno ?

The use case would be organisations that have a mixed environment of QGIS and MapInfo installations. It would allow QGIS users to create and update object in a .tab file and save the file. Later this file - if opened in MapInfo (or QGIS) - would be shown with the correct embedded styling.
