Azimuth/Distance fields not pickable in QGIS3 about qgis-shapetools-plugin

[hamiltoncj]

@gisresolute Can you provide some more information? I just tested it on my machine and I don't have any issues. Do you have a point or line layer selected and is it enabled for editing? Are you on Windows or Linux? Are you using the latest QGIS 3.0.2?

HI, Thanks for your swift reply, Yes I have a point layer enabled for editing, running on Windows 10, using QGIS 3.0.2, im pulling a view from MSSQL, I think it might be do with that. If I save that layer as a SHP file it works fine but reading from the MSSQL I get this python error: 2018-05-14T07:50:01 WARNING Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/cfranklin/AppData/Roaming/QGIS/QGIS3\profiles\default/python/plugins\shapetools\vector2Shape.py", line 155, in showEvent self.findFields() File "C:/Users/cfranklin/AppData/Roaming/QGIS/QGIS3\profiles\default/python/plugins\shapetools\vector2Shape.py", line 162, in findFields if layer: SystemError: error return without exception set But running the tool in QGIS 2.18.19 I get no error on the same MSSQL dataset. Subset of dataset attached.

@gisresolute I am at FOSS4G NA this week and am not going to have much time to take a look at the issue, but I have been following the QGIS developers groupt. A few days ago there was a person who had a similar issue with MSSQL and QGIS 3. I'm thinking there may be a problem with the MSSQL driver and will probably be fixed in the next release, but I should probably report what you found to the QGIS developers group.

@gisresolute I wish I had an answer for you. I have taken a look at the code and do not see where there could be a problem. I can't replicate it primarily because I don't have an MSSQL database. I have seen some issues with MSSQL in the qgis-developer's group so I am thinking it is a problem with QGIS 3 and MSSQL. If there is any way you can create a small data set that replicates the problem so that I can test it, that might help identify whether it is a plugin problem or QGIS 3 problem.
