Description

This issue is probably a little broader than this, but I can reproduce it in the following way:

  • Add a layer from PostGIS with an SQL filter applied.
  • Add another layer from PostGIS with a different SQL filter applied.
  • Add both layers to a layer group.
  • Save the layer group to a Layer Definition File (*.qlr).
  • Load the *.qlr file into a non-empty project.

Every time I do it, the group loads with two layers, but the layers are always identical. In one case, it loaded the filter, the name and the style of the first layer twice. In another case it loaded the filter from one layer and the name from the other.

just tested the above steps on qgsi master and got always the expected outcome.

#2 Updated by weston mcarron over 9 years ago

I just reread my steps and realized I wasn't clear enough.

On step 2, the layer has to be from the same PostGIS table as in step 1, but with a different filter applied.

So two layers, both of which draw on the same PostGIS table.

Can you reproduce it that way?

#3 Updated by weston mcarron over 9 years ago

Also, the non-empty project in the last step seemed to be important for duplicating it. If I loaded the qlr file into a fresh project with no other layers it seemed to work fine.
