Dear all,

In Postgres, I have a parent table with geometry, and a child table without. A relationship has been defined between the two which works for the forms I'm using. I would like to be able to use the map to select features in the parent table and the corresponding records in the child table, in order to be able to edit the selected child records. I know I can create an updateable view in postgres that would achieve this.

Is there a better/easier way to do it? A way to let the child layer inherit the geometry from the parent? I first thought to join the parent table to the child table, but that only joins the attributes, and doesn't make the child table spatially selectable. Using the db manager to create a virtual layer gives the correct query result, but the loaded layer is not editable (as to be expected, I think) and the attribute table is empty (maybe not expected).

I have the suspicion that this should be straightforward and I am just overlooking the obvious. Any pointers/thoughts are appreciated.

Thank you,

Janneke
