Description

I am using a feature subset query that i can't edit via the query builder. I am using rule based layers as well, but I noticed that with this combination I cannot edit the SHP file - I wanted to do a copy and paste from another SHP file. Is this done for any reason or can editing be supported with this mode?

At the moment my only work around is to open the files without these queries attached and then do a copy and paste and then save on them.

Unsure if this is a bug or a feature request.

Unfortunately this is a limitation with the OGR driver. Once you set a filter on a layer we loose edit ability.
