Hi David,

This sounds like a bug to me. I haven't seen this behavior in my own projects.

Did you check with other (non KML) data sources if they behave the same?

You shouldn't have to delete any items in print composer to get them to update. A simple redraw should do it, normally. Can you please submit a bug report and provide a reduced project to demonstrate the issue?

Do you have other QGIS versions at hand to test if this works in other versions? E.g. a nightly/weekly of QGIS master (2.99)?

Thanks,
Andreas

I have a configured an attribute table in a print composer, it pulls values from an imported (GE) KML layer, 
"name" and "description" (and lat/lon). These display nicely. But I updated the values in GE and 
these updates are not reflected in the attribute table. I've pressed the "refresh table data" button and the 
"refresh view" button (many times) and even restarted to no avail.

Looking at the values for the field values in Print 
Composer->Attributes->Expression Dialog window, I get an old, not refreshed 
list.

While looking at the same data via the label tool in map mode 
Map->Layer->Properties->Label With->Expression Dialog (not composer mode), I 
see the correct, current values.

I'd think the table data should update both in map mode and in composer mode, 
but barring that, is there a way to update the attribute table in composer? Do 
I need to delete all tables and recreate them every time the underlying field 
values change to get them to update?


I also posted this question to

with screen shots.

Thanks,
David
