I posted this to qt centre first a couple of weeks ago but have not been able
to get an answer hopefully someone here might be able to pass on a clue
http://www.qtcentre.org/forum/f-qt-programming-2/t-how-to-change-the-selection-of-a-parent-qtableview-from-a-sub-qtableview-25996.html
I have a special table that's related to it's self like so
Qt Code:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
CREATE TABLE people (
ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT
, Name TEXT
, BlaBla TEXT)
CREATE TABLE children (
parentID INTEGER
, childID INTEGER
, Whatever TEXT) so I'd like to have 1 QTableView that's a master list and lists
all people. I'd like a sub QTableView that will list only the children
of the selected person. So far no big deal. What I can't figure out is
how to make it so that when the user double clicks on a child that
child becomes the new selection of the master list of all people.
I've hacked together a quick example of what I'm talking about that
works OK on my machine using python 2.6 and pyqt 4.5.3 though this
should be general to all qt more or less. In the example it's the
childrenClicked method that I can't figure out.
Thanks,
Aaron
