Hi All, Finally had time to look into this. Command line that works is as follows:
qgis --project f:\qgis\WorldMap.qgs --extent -119.270002,46.195891,-119.263714,46.200514 where: - extent parameters are xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax - project CRS units must match extent coordinates Loren ________________________________________ Loren Dawe - Senior Geomatics Specialist Terra Remote Sensing Inc. 250.656.0931 -----Original Message----- From: Mike Flannigan <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, April 9, 2023 8:47 AM To: Loren Dawe <[email protected]> Subject: [External] [Qgis-user] Zoom QGIS to specific location by command line How did this work out for you?
