Replacing image in QStyledItemDelegate

[raven-worx]

@gabor53
you can do this by creating a custom editor widget in createEditor(). Save the filepath (e.g. with setProperty("file-path")on the pushbutton, and read it again on save in setModelData(). In there you call model->setData().
If not already done you of course need to implement setData() in your model to save the value (image,...) back to the DB.

I created the button in createEditor().

            QPushButton *button = new QPushButton(parent) ;
            button->setMaximumWidth (100);

In setEditorData() I have

   QPushButton *button = qobject_cast<QPushButton*>(editor);
    if(button)
        {
            button->setIcon (QIcon("C:/Programming/Projects/Folkfriends_1_0/icons/fix.png"));
        }

.At this point I think I should have a button if the user clicks on the image but after clicking on the image I get a textEditor. What did I miss? Thank you.

@gabor53
show the whole createEditor() method pls.

I found the problem. The correct code is

 QPushButton *button = qobject_cast<QPushButton*>(editor);
    if(button)
        {
            button->setIcon (QIcon("C:/Programming/Projects/Folkfriends_1_0/icons/fix.png"));
return button;
        }

I missed the return...

My next step (as I have the button now) is to place the original image on the button.
In setEditorData I have the following:

QPushButton *button = qobject_cast<QPushButton*>(editor);
    if(button)
        {            
            QPixmap buttonPix;
            buttonPix.loadFromData (index.model ()->data (index,Qt::DisplayRole).toByteArray ());

            qDebug() << "Fix image size: " << buttonPix.size();

            button->setIcon (QIcon(buttonPix));

        }

I hoped to create a QPixmap from the BLOB in the database located where the index points. I wanted to place the pixmap on the button as an icon. The button is still there but the original image is not on the button and I also got the message
Fix image size: QSize(0, 0)
which shows my QPixmap is empty. What step did I miss? Thank you.

yes, i was suspecting that.

basically your code looks correct.
Whats the image format of the image blob?
Does your model's data() method really return a QByteArray for the Qt::DisplayRole?
Please show your data() implementation.

@raven-worx
The image format is jpg.
I believe the model's data() method returns a QByteArray, but here is the code:
The function that saves the image to the db:

QFile fileReview(fileNameChosen);

    if(fileReview.open (QIODevice::ReadOnly))
        {
            fileByteArray = fileReview.readAll ();
        }

QFile fileReview(fileNameChosen);

    if(fileReview.open (QIODevice::ReadOnly))
        {
            fileByteArray = fileReview.readAll ();
        }

The model's data() implementation:

 QStandardItemModel *fixModel = new QStandardItemModel(this);
    ui->tableView_Fix->setModel (fixModel);

    for(int row1 = 0; query_fix.next (); row1++)
        {
            if(row1 == 0)
                {
                    const QSqlRecord qRec = query_fix.record();
                    qDebug() << "The number of records (MainWindow): " << qRec;
                    fixModel->insertColumns (0, qRec.count());
                    qDebug() << "fixdb record count: " << qRec.count ();
                }

            fixModel->insertRow (row1);
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,0),query_fix.value (0));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,1),query_fix.value (1));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,2), query_fix.value (13));

            fixPixmap.loadFromData (query_fix.value (2).toByteArray ());
            fixPixmap = fixPixmap.scaled (100,100,Qt::KeepAspectRatio);

            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,3),fixPixmap,Qt::DecorationRole);
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,4),query_fix.value (11));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,5),query_fix.value (10));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,6),query_fix.value (3));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index(row1,7),query_fix.value (4));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,8),query_fix.value (12));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,9),query_fix.value (7));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,10),query_fix.value (8));
            fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,11),query_fix.value (9));

            ui->tableView_Fix->setRowHeight (row1,100);
        }

Thank you.

I also noticed, that for some reason all the images are saved 45 degrees turned right so all the vertical images are horizontal.

[gabor53]

Ran the debugger and got the following at this line:

     QPixmap buttonPix;
            buttonPix.loadFromData (index.model ()->data (index,Qt::DisplayRole).toByteArray ());

In the Locals and Expressions window I got the following Name - Value - Type values:
buttonPix - (invalid) - QPixmap.
I'm wondering why is it invalid? (Or what can make it invalid?)
Thank you.

[raven-worx]

@gabor53
you are already returning a QPixmap (fixModel->setData (fixModel->index (row1,3),fixPixmap,Qt::DecorationRole);) not a QByteArray

[gabor53]

@raven-worx
I tried to use

buttonPix.loadFromData (index.model ()->data (index,Qt::DisplayRole).toByteArray ());

without toByteArray() but it didn't work. I assumed that the model stores the data as a QVariant so I tried to do the following:

QPixmap buttonPix;
            QVariant pic;
            pic = (index.data (Qt::DisplayRole));
            buttonPix.loadFromData (pic.toByteArray());

            button->setIcon (QIcon(buttonPix));

            int row = index.row ();
            int col = index.column ();

            qDebug() << "SetEditorData row, col: " << "(" << row << "," << col << ")";

            qDebug() << "Fix image size: " << buttonPix.size();          

            return;

and the message I got was identical to the previous one:
QPixmap::scaled: Pixmap is a null pixmap
SetEditorData row, col: ( 1 , 3 )
Fix image size: QSize(0, 0)

After running Debug at the

  QPixmap buttonPix;

line the buttonPix value was buttonPix (481622520x389579424) QPixmap
which changed to buttonPix (Invalid) QPixmap at the QVariant pic line. What am I missing here? Is this a completely incorrect idea? Thank you.
