Answering my own question: The change is not visible until the commit, which is what I was expecting and hoping. I added a couple of buttons to a dialog box in an application that connected to our database. In the handler for one button, I began a transaction and updated a value. In the handler for the other, I committed the transaction. After clicking the first button, the old value appeared in PGAdmin. After clicking the second, the new value appeared.

Correction from my previous post. The first word in the title should have been "when", not "where".
