I have a selected feature in the project that is symbolised differently. I can see it in the print layout, but the is_selected expression returns a false. I need to label only this feature in a text box.

If you use is_selected as part of an if statement, it might do what you need. enter image description here

If you want to see the other labels also - have a 2nd layer with labels, no symbols. Set the main (is selected test) label placement to high priority. This is what you will get: enter image description here

  • It works in the project labeling. In my case however, all labels must show. I need a text box in the print layout that must only show the selected features' attribute/s. I tried the same expression under 'insert/edit expression' button, but no luck. Must I use it in combination with a print command? Commented May 7, 2022 at 15:22
  • I'm not completely sure if the edits to the answer I did will work for you.
