 Hello, this is Hans van der Krust, Senior Lecturer at IHE Doft Institute for Water Education. In this video I'm going to show you how to save styles from rusters. Of course you can save your project and then the style will be included in your project. But if you load the ruster layers in a new project, they don't have the styling. This is because you can style the rusters in many different ways and it's up to the user. But if we want to have the styling together with the ruster, then we need to actively save the style in a file that goes with the ruster layer. I will show some different methods. So here we have a style DEM and a hillshade. And if I go to the layer properties, I can go to the style menu and save the style. And I can save it here as a QML file. Let's call it DEM, the same name as the layer, we will show later what this does. And I'll do the same for hillshade. You can also see that you can save it as an SLD which is a standard QML is the QGIS style file. So let's save this as hillshade. So now we have two files that are together with the layers and let's see how we use that in practice. So I'm going to remove these two layers and I'm going to add the DEM to the canvas. And now we see that it is styled automatically because the QML file has the same name, DEM. It will not take the hillshade. If I want to apply the hillshade, I can load the style and choose the hillshade. And now I have the DEM styled with the hillshade. If I duplicate it, let's rename it, so this is the hillshade, that's the DEM. Now let's apply the style by using the file, mode style, DEM. And now we have the DEM with the colors. There's another way of saving your styles in the process in Toolbox. If you search on style, you can find create style database from project. There, if you don't define the input project, it will use the styles from the current project and you can select which styles you want to save to the database. The database is an XML file, which contains all the styling information. So I'm creating that now. And let's have a look on how to use that. This is the style manager. And there you can import these items that are saved in an XML. So I open here DEM styles, XML. And I see here our DEM. And I can add it to favorites or I can define tags. Let's call it elevation. You have to select the one you want to import and then you click import. Now you can find it here in the list, which means you can use it in any other QGIS project because it's saved in your profile. So if I go here to single-gram pseudo-color, then I find here under all color rams, DEM. And I can apply it. So these are different ways to save your styles for raster layers. There's another video that shows this for vector layers.
