Re: [Qgis-developer] Referencing QgsComposerAttributeTable from a Print Composer Template

2015-05-28 Thread Jakob Lanstorp 
Thanks for the documentation. It's working:

attrtable =
composition.getComposerItemById('MyComposerAttributeTable').multiFrame() 

returns a QgsComposerAttributeTable

Call multiFrame() on the frame to get a reference to its parent
attribute table. Tables can be split over multiple frames, so each
item is it's own frame. The attribute table is the parent multiframe
which controls what is displayed in each individual frame.

[Qgis-developer] Referencing QgsComposerAttributeTable from a Print Composer Template

2015-05-28 Thread Jakob Lanstorp 
When referencing a QgsComposerAttributeTable from a Print Composer template
like this:

composerView = composerList[0]
composition = composerView.composition()
attrtable = composition.getComposerItemById('MyComposerAttributeTable') 

I get a  returned in attrtable object.
I would expect a QgsComposerAttributeTable?

Need to set a filter on the attribute table in the print composer. 

Since the composer is large with a lot of items, I have made the template in
the print composer and getting the items with
getComposerItemById('MyItemId'). If I build the composer from scratch in
Python, I can of course use the QgsComposerAttributeTable, but is not an
option here.
