Serializing on drag, then deserializing the mime data on drop?

No i have not considered this part.

@kshegunov : I mean't view side caching.

@Ratzz currently you are not inserting anything through it. Like @kshegunov suggested, implement the drag and drop through the mechanism provided for model/view classes. It's described here

@SGaist
I will try to implement through (link you provided ) this.

No i have not considered this part.

Then I suggest you try it out. It may prove to be easier and better behaved than pulling the records directly from the tree widget. As for your current implementation, I'm at a loss why it doesn't work. Maybe the tree view is losing the selection when dragging and the selection model returns no records?

@SGaist

I mean't view side caching.

I see, well I didn't look at the view (obviously) but I suppose it's possible.

Hi
I am still wondering. Sorry.
Lets say If I dont have drag&drop.

I simply append to my internal list used in model.

How will I tell the view(s) that?

I though dataChanged would do it but not even begin/endInsertRow
does it.

Thanks

I don't think so because the rowCount is getting updated as and when the new drop takes place.

I'm by no means an expert, but possibly calling submit() (I don't know if it works I'm just guessing)?

On a side note, your rowCount implementation should rather return the size of your TableList, that way it's one less thing to manage.

@SGaist
Yes ,now i am returning the size of TableList .

[Ratzz]

In dropEvent called a new function from model which stores all the parameter of item when droped and emitted layoutAboutToBeChanged() before appending to my TableList and then emitted layoutChanged() which worked for me.

Thanks to @kshegunov , @SGaist , @mrjj for the help.
