I want to have a QListView
which displays custom widgets. I guess the best way to do this would be a QItemDelegate
. Unfortunately I don't quite understand how to subclass it correctly and how to implement the paint()
method, which seems to be the most important one. I couldn't find anything about using a delegate to create another widget.
I already tried to implement something similar without a delegate, but that didn't work out that well, because QListView
is not supposed to display widgets.
import sys
from PyQt4 import QtCore
from PyQt4 import QtGui
class Model(QtCore.QAbstractListModel):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(QtCore.QAbstractListModel, self).__init__(parent)
self._widgets = []
def headerData(self, section, orientation, role):
""" Returns header for columns """
return "Header"
def rowCount(self, parentIndex=QtCore.QModelIndex()):
""" Returns number of interfaces """
return len(self._widgets)
def data(self, index, role):
""" Returns the data to be displayed """
if role == QtCore.Qt.DisplayRole:
row = index.row()
return self._widgets[row]
def insertRow(self, widget, parentIndex=QtCore.QModelIndex()):
""" Inserts a row into the model """
self.beginInsertRows(parentIndex, 0, 1)
self._widgets.append(widget)
self.endInsertRows()
class Widget(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None, name="None"):
super(QtGui.QWidget, self).__init__(parent)
self.layout = QtGui.QHBoxLayout()
self.setLayout(self.layout)
self.checkbox = QtGui.QCheckBox()
self.button = QtGui.QPushButton(self)
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(self)
self.label.setText(name)
self.layout.addWidget(self.checkbox)
self.layout.addWidget(self.button)
self.layout.addWidget(self.label)
class Window(QtGui.QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(QtGui.QMainWindow, self).__init__(parent)
self.view = QtGui.QListView(self)
self.model = Model()
self.view.setModel(self.model)
self.setCentralWidget(self.view)
self.model.insertRow(
widget=Widget(self)
)
self.model.insertRow(
widget=Widget(self)
)
self.model.insertRow(
widget=Widget(self)
)
self.model.insertRow(
widget=Widget(self)
)
self.show()
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = Window()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
So, how would I need to implement a delegate in order to do what I want?
