    Hi @asanka424 @SGaist
    I was able to set the item flags correctly but now I'm having problem with item changed signal.
    How do I know where was the Item (it's row) before it was moved? (I can set the item's data to hold the current row but isn't there a better way?)

    And also I was searching the QStandardItemModel's signals to find something useful and I found QStandardItemModel::rowsMoved(...) and QStandardItemModel::rowsAboutToBeMoved(...) and I tried them but they don't ge triggred when an item is moved. why is that?

      You can try dataChanged signal but it won't identify moves explicitly.

      BTW does drag and drop work as you expected now?

        Hi @asanka424
        Yes it does. if it won't work then I will have to set the user data every time an item moves. but I think there has to be another way.

          this will enable drops in each item in your model. what you should do is disabling it like this

          item->setFlags(item->flags() ^ Qt::ItemIsDropEnabled)

          Beware of such handling of flags!

          It's a very wrong way to do it. If the flag is not set you'll actually enable it, additionally it doesn't work with compound flags! Suppose you have (in binary) a = 010 and b = 110, then a ^ b == 100 which is very different from the expected 000.

          The proper way to remove a set of bits is to AND the inversion: a & ~b == 000
          /and this can be rigorously proven to be different from a ^ b if you expand the xor in the other basic operations a ^ b = (a & ~b) | (~a & b)/

            Hi @kshegunov . Thank you for correcting that I cahnged my code.
            I tried the item changed flag and the data of item but it didn't work. I really don't know what to do

              Well I don't know, I can't spot anything plainly wrong, although there isn't much code to begin with. However, this line:

              queueView->setDragEnabled(false);
              

              does look suspicious, have you removed it as it had been suggested, because it's not clear from your answer to @asanka424's question.

                Yes agree with you. I just replied for the context where I knew the flag is set.

                  Hi @asanka424 @kshegunov
                  Sorry for replying late.
                  an interesting thing happened:
                  when I set the flags of the items to
                  queueModel->item(i)->setFlags(queueModel->item(i)->flags() & !Qt::ItemIsDropEnabled);
                  the items get disabled!
                  bot when I do:
                  queueModel->item(i)->setFlags(queueModel->item(i)->flags() ^ Qt::ItemIsDropEnabled);
                  the is no problem. I think I'm doing something wrong.

                  ANd I will try:
                  queueView->setDragEnabled(false);
                  and get back with a result. thank all of you for answering again. I love this from and the people who answer the questions

                    Hi,
                    I tried this:
                    queueView->setDragEnabled(false);
                    and it didn't work.

                    this problem isn't fixable :( :(

                      One thing you can try: start by setting the view mode or don't set it at all since you are using the default mode.

                        Hi,
                        I gave up moving the items by drag and droping them
                        Now I want to put move up and move down buttons
                        How can I move a selected index one item up or down?

                          Hi, I put two buttons for moving items up and down but when the buttons are pressed the listView goes out of focus and the selected items don't remain selected. how can I fix this?

                          and also how can I swap children of a QDomElement?
