QGIS 3 Clip Issue – Troubleshooting Shapefile Clipping in QGIS 3

clipqgisqgis-3

I was clipping vector layers yesterday with no problems, and now all of a sudden it doesn't want to work and keeps giving me an error stating:

Feature (2) has invalid geometry. Please fix the geometry or change the Processing setting to the "Ignore invalid input features" option.
Execution failed after 0.05 seconds

I even created a new project and tried to re-clip a vector layer that I did yesterday, and now it doesn't work. Also, the error message says to change the Processing setting to the "Ignore invalid input features", but I can't see any options in the clipping window.

Setting up the clip:

Best Answer

For the Processing setting "Ignore invalid input features" you have to look in the general option in the processing tab enter image description here

For the different CRS my understanding is that QGIS 3 take care of reprojection during processing but you may try to re-project yourself to run the clip tool with two SHP in the same CRS....
