Render QListView like QTableView

dada

Hi guys

I dont really know how to call what i want. And because of that, i wasn't able to search for it properly.

I've got a simple list-model and i'm rendering it in a QListview. And that works fine. But is there a way to render a QListView like a Table?

Lets take 3 columns for example. That should look like that. (the number is the id from that data in the model)
How it looks like normaly:
[0]
[1]
[2]
[3]
....

How i want it to look like:
[0] [1] [2]
[3] [4] [5]
....

Ich hope you know what I mean?

Hi and welcome
Have a look at the flow setting
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5.5/qlistview.html#flow-prop

Setting it to LeftToRight might do what you want :)
Also set isWrapping to true
Also look at gridsize.

Nope, doesn't work. It changes it from:
[0]
[1]
[2]
[3]
...

to:
[0] [1] [2] [3] [4] .....

Howerver, if there's no easy way i'll use a QTableView and change the data-method in the model to act like an table but with an 1D array. Like that: (I use Qt only in Python, so i'm showing you python)

return data[(row - 1) * 3 + column]

I think that should work

But thank you anyway

mrjj

well it will wrap at widgets border
so if u need it to wrap before, u might try icon mode/grid mode.

Well using QTableView does seems like a better fit then.

Thank you! That works great. :D

The Tableview would have worked too. But there's the problem, the view expects, that every row has the same amount of columns... There would it be a litle tricky (x) :
[0] [1] [2]

[x]

Hi
Oh you need something like

[0] [1] [2]

[x]

[4] [5] [x]

[x]

is empty ?

dada

Nope. I need what you postet^^

But before your post, i tried to archive my goal with an QTableView. But there occured some issues when your datamodel hasn't enaugh items to fill the last row completly. You know what i mean?

But it doesnt care anymore. Your solution works fine.
