The reason is that activated is sent out depending on the platform you're running on. For example on win32 its only sent when double-clicking the item, on macosx (IIRC) its sent out on single-click. Same thing on KDE4, if KDE4 is configured for single-click. > FWIW, in opposition to what you say, selectionChanged and currentChanged > always > seem to fire together. I have not yet seen a case where only one fires. They don't if you have a contigous or extended selection set and use the mouse to select multiple items with Ctrl+Click or Shift+Click. In such cases selectionChanged is emitted, but not currentChanged. currentChanged is only emitted when you click (without keyboard modifier) onto an item or if you use the keyboard to navigate in the view. So you'll have to decide between them based on what selection is possible in the view. But you certainly don't need to override any function to do what you want, just connect the right signal.
