Description

I created a project whose layers came from a locally available PostGIS connection (replication slave).

When I opened the project on another network I had to change the PostGIS source to the replication master host.

The layers loaded fine but with their default styles - my layer styles were overriden.

Expected behaviour: replacing a layer's source should not affect the style.

Can you please explain step-by-step what you did after loading the "bad" project? (a short video might also help)

Can you please attach a test project and minimal DB dump to replicate this issue?

Alessandro - I'm guessing this is because the layer has a default style set on the db, and it's getting re-applied after the call to change to layer's uri.

@Nyall thank you for the clarification, I totally misunderstood "default style" and I thought it was the random style applied to new layers.
