Toggle layer visibility

Hi, somehow I need to create a plugin which can toggle visibility of a layer in the .qml, I am wondering if this is currently possible?

Heya!

I found that it’s possible like this:

import org.qfield

let count = flatLayerTree.rowCount();
for (let i = 0; i < count; ++i) {
    let idx = flatLayerTree.index(i, 0);
    let name = flatLayerTree.data(idx, FlatLayerTreeModel.Name);
    let visible = flatLayerTree.data(idx, FlatLayerTreeModel.Visible);
    iface.logMessage("Layer: " + name + " was visible: " + visible);
    flatLayerTree.setData(idx, !visible, FlatLayerTreeModel.Visible);
}

To change/read different layer values, you can reference the enums in FlatLayerTreeModel.

Hope this helps!
