[GIS] Why is the data missing in the new shapefile

exportqgis

I've made a new shapefile from a part of an attribute table. Marked all the rows that I needed and clicked on "save selection as", added the new layer in my project. All the data is missing, there is only the headlines of the columns.

I save the new shapefile like this:

  • Format: ESRI shapefile
  • Encoding: System
  • Layer CRS
  • And the same projection as all the other layers, SWEREF99 12 00.

I'm used to working in ArcMap, and I'm now working in QGIS. Is there a difference in the programs of how I do this kind of thing?

I think you checked box "skip attribute creation" in save as layer dialogue box.
