[Qgis-developer] [Solved] Python: change query of PostGIS layer

[Ian Packham]

Thanks Martin

Bernhard - I don't think your problem is unique - I have also been trying to do the same thing and spent a long time looking through the docs (particularly the API for QgsVectorLayer) to find the solution. I think one problem is that I was looking for something like "Query" as in the qgis layer, but it is named differently in the docs. 

Now I am looking to make a layer invisible (i.e. click the cross next to the layer in qgis, but keep the layer). Again I am finding it difficult - maybe set in the MapCanvas or Registry?
