Im trying to calculate certain values of a newly calculated point. So I use the field calculator to write an equation to determine the values.



Is there a way to save that equation, so that if and when I start a new job, I don't have to retype it in?



Something similar to how you save styles and symbology for a array of points.

          QGIS saves the last equation used in the field calculator under the tab "Recent" where you can reuse it by double-clicking it

          • That is right in case the OP didn't use other equations later. But it will disappear by time when the OP uses new equations. The Recent container is just temporarily.

          The only way you have is to save the equation in a text editor like Notepad++ because I cannot see any option to save the equation directly using QGIS neither in Field Calculator or Advanced Python Field Calculator accessed from Processing toolbox in both QGIS 2.18.23 or QGIS 3.2.2

            Additionally to the solution by @LaughU, you may incorporate any field calculator operation into a graphical model and then save and run the model. This but requires your column names always to be the same.

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections.

Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar.
