Description

I think that reload table can be useful (or even layer, note however that GRASS geometry for example, is updated whenever it is changed) for all vectors in QGIS and for more situations (data edited from other clients).

Reload is especially useful for delimited text plugin, and GPX layers.

I guess there should be a "Reload Layer" (not just the attributes but also features and layer extent).

#4 Updated by Giovanni Manghi almost 13 years ago

  • Target version changed from Version 1.7.0 to Version 1.7.4

#5 Updated by Paolo Cavallini over 12 years ago

  • Crashes QGIS or corrupts data set to No
  • Target version changed from Version 1.7.4 to Version 1.8.0
  • Affected QGIS version set to master

#6 Updated by Paolo Cavallini about 12 years ago

  • Target version changed from Version 1.8.0 to Version 2.0.0

#7 Updated by joto - over 11 years ago

I wonder why this is getting pushed again and again? I miss this feature every time I work with QGIS. Everybody who generates data outside QGIS and uses that data inside QGIS must need this feature. I can't count the number of times I have removed and re-added a layer or the whole project just to get QGIS to reload the data.

What can we do to move this forward?

I just tested Reloader plugin. It doesn't behave as expected, adding the refreshed data source as another layer, and not refreshing current layer..
