If you ask me personally, I wouldn't use QTableWidget. Look into
QTreeView or QListWidget.
I think they are more suitable for such tasks and are easier to handle.
With QTreeView you can use QItemDelegate, to create a special rendering.
With QListWidget you can simply add a widget per row and inside the
widget you can put whatever.
ATM I'm in the middle of a 2000 km road trip so I can't rally provide
you sample's, but if you need help next week I'm glad to give you
samples how to use these widgets.

Is this the best way to do it though? I.e. having one item per cell?
s there another way at all?
I'm still a bit lost in the model/view design and can't find the
answer online.
I'm simply trying to have each row represent a "task" with a
title/description (string), a status (boolean) and a priority
(integer). For the integer I need a spin box and for the boolean I
need a checkbox. The examples I found online all seem to be doing
something slightly different and often use different ways which makes
matters more confusing.
Here is what I have at the moment:
http://pastebin.com/H3GD0xVB
The "status" and "priority" values don't display currnelty as I
haven't figured out how to properly assign a delegate to just those
cells. At the top I tried to define a n item delegete for a spin box
but I'm not sure how to properly assign it.
Do I have to make the delegate draw different widgets (spin box /
checkbox) depending on data type, or can/should I use a different
delegate for each cell?
I'm sure the answer is right in front of me, could you please help
one more time please?!
Cheers,

If you mean to use a QStandardItem per cell then yes.
Also for storing values that you want to display, use the
Qt.DisplayRole as role.

Subject: Re: [PySide] simple QTableView example
one more silly question if I may:
So if I have a task like this:
newTask = {'title':'new task', 'priority':1, 'status':False}
and need to store the data in one row in the model I should use
three different items, one for each value, right?!
e.g.:
newTask = {'title':'new task', 'priority':1, 'status':False}
row = self.model.rowCount()
for column, attr in enumerate(['title', 'priority',
'status']):
newItem = QtGui.QStandardItem(newTask[attr])
self.model.setItem(row, column, newItem)
then juggle delegates or widgets to use a spin box for the
integer and a checkbox for the boolean...
Thanks for the help!
Cheers,
frank

Hey,
I'm not sure I understand the problem correctly.
If you want to store data in a cell or a QStandardItem, then
you need to use setData() and data().
Generally you shouldn't need to subclass QStandardItem or
QStandardItemModel.
Here is an example how:
# Define roles
FINISHED_ROLE = QtCore.Qt.UserRole + 1
PRIORITY_ROLE = QtCore.Qt.UserRole + 2
# Create model
model = QtGui.QStandardItemModel()
item = QtGui.QStandarItem()
model.appendRow(item)
item_index = item.index()
# Store data using the item
item.setData(finished, FINISHED_ROLE)
item.setData(priority, PRIORITY_ROLE)
# Store data using the model
model.setData(item_index, finished, FINISHED_ROLE)
model.setData(item_index, priority, PRIORITY_ROLE)
# Retrieve data using the item
finished = item.data(FINISHED_ROLE)
priority = item.data(PRIORITY_ROLE)
# Retrieve data using the model
finished = model.data(item_index, FINISHED_ROLE)
priority = model.data(item_index, PRIORITY_ROLE)
In some cases like click event handlers, you have the model
and the item index, there it's easier to use the model
methods instead of finding the item and then getting the data. ?
Hope it helps.

Tibold

After looking at some more examples I think my approach of
storing multiple values in one item is fundamentally flawed.
Instead I should be using one item per cell and assign the
respective data, right?!
I shall re-write the example accordingly, sorry for the noise.

Hi all,
after a bit of a break from PySide I am trying to
wrap my head around the model/view stuff again and am
trying to understand how a very simple example would
work where a QStandarItem has properties "title",
"priority" and "finished" which are displayed via a
QStandardTableView.
I am struggling with understanding how to properly
display the above three properties in the table's
columns. I tried setting the data() method on the
model like this:
/ def data(self, index, role=QtCore.Qt.DisplayRole)://
// '''Return data based on index and role'''//
// item = self.itemFromIndex(index)//
// if index.column() == 0://
// return item.title//
// elif index.column() == 1://
// return item.finished//
// elif index.column() == 2://
// return item.priority/
but for some reason it errors saying item does not
have attribute "finished" even though my item object
s declared like this:
/class TaskItem(QtGui.QStandardItem)://
// '''Item to hold a task for the todo list'''//
////
// def __init__(self, title, finished=False,
priority=1)://
// super(TaskItem, self).__init__(title)//
// self.title = title//
// self.finished = finished//
// self.priority = priority/
When printing the item's attributes via dir() I see
that, when the model is populated, the last item it
attempts to call is not my custom item object, but
something else with less attributes and methods.
Clearly there is something I haven't quite understood
about this process.
Also, if I use the models data() method as pointed
out above, I get checkboxes in the cells which I
don't want at this stage.
Can somebody please help me understand where I go wrong?
Attached is the whole test code.
Cheers,
frank
P.S.: I am aware that the controller code shouldn't
necessarily live in the QWidget's methods, this is
just for testing which I will clean up once I get how
it all connects again
