I'm glad we're all on the same page. Looking into Justin's mention of "taking" the item, I do see that functionality in the Convenience Widgets (QTreeWidget, etc), but not in QAbstractItemModel. Same with Marcus' suggestion of moveRow(). I might be looking at the wrong documentation...( http://srinikom.github.io/pyside-docs/PySide/QtCore/QAbstractItemModel.html or http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qabstractitemmodel.html).
I haven't gone into beginMoveRows yet, mainly as in dropMimeData I don't have an index or parent for the original element (I think the model manages that internally), although I can get the data from it (I look up the element in my underlying data model using the serialization I put into the MimeData). I'm doing the reordering exactly as Marcus described as well, although I'm currently inserting my cloned item. I think I could serialize the index data in mimeData to reconstruct the parent index in dropMimeData, that might be my next move so I can try working with beginMoveRows and see if it's any cleaner. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
