Hi Kelly,

I am doing something similar for my company but I am developing it for the next release, because master has QgsComposition::loadFromTemplate method, which 1.8 has not.

However to get a new printComposer you can use
self.iface.actionPrintComposer().trigger()
which adds a new composer to the project's list of composers. But AFAIK you can not load a template into it with 1.8

Hello,


I am building a python plugin for QGIS 1.8 and am trying to manipulate the map 
composers.

The goal is to load a template, customise a few elements, and then leave the 
composer window up for the user to modify / print / etc.

I know that current composers can be listed by calling 
qgis.utils.iface.activeComposers().

However I have been unable to create or destroy composer windows without 
resorting to spoofing user input to the composer manager dialog!

Is there a technique by which I can add/remove composers programmatically?

Thanks,
Kelly Thomas
