[Qgis-developer] [Qgis-user] [Plugin presentation] LayerCombination

[Stott James]

Man I wish this had existed about a year and a half ago. Especially the fact that it integrates into the composers too. I have always felt that was something that was needed - an easy way to edit the locked layers in a composer map - hence why I wrote a plugin for it.

Think I may well not bother update the locked layers editor plugin to 2.0 seeing as you have made this. This is much better.

Dear Mailing list,

I've been working on a python plugin called "Layer Combinations", which I'd love to release as stable for QGIS 2.0 (it's still flagged as experimental).

Since it's a workflow enhancement plugin, I thought it could be of some interest to most of you. If so, I invite you to try the latest version (0.8, requires QGIS nightly/master), and report any bugs or ideas on the tracker :
https://github.com/olivierdalang/layerCombinations

You'll find a small explanation of the plugin below, and a video trailer here :

Thanks for your attention !

## LayerCombinations##

It allows to store the visibility and the folding state of the layers in the legend in so called "combinations".

Those combination can then be restored, allowing to switch back and forth complex setups.

The combinations can also be applied to composer maps. The link is dynamic, which means that if the combination is updated, the composer map will automatically reflect the modifications.

I find it very handy for big projects with many layers and several print composers.

Hope you like it !
