    I made a proxy model to support roles in models that don't https://github.com/VSRonin/QtModelUtilities the class is called RoleMaskProxyModel. Here is an example that uses it to colour QStringListModel: https://github.com/VSRonin/QtModelUtilities/blob/1.0.0/examples/exam_RoleMaskProxyModel/exam_rolemaskhighlight.cpp

    Hopefully I'll eventually find the time to complete adding that class to Qt: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/245572/

    @VRonin Looks very interesting.
    I downloaded your rolemaskproxymodel and classes related to it(whole src directory), but when i tried to Run i got such strange stuff:

    Oh and don't look at first two errors, they unrelated completelly, it appears when i swap compiler to Release mode, did'nt figure out what it is yet.

      If you just copy-paste the code you have to add DEFINES += MODELUTILITIES_STATIC to your .pro file

          Exact same answer.
          There's a section in the readme that explains how to use the library: https://vsronin.github.io/QtModelUtilities/md__i_n_s_t_a_l_l.html

              You have to manually click on build-> rerun qmake every time you change something in the .pro file

                  let's do it manually then: remove all the MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT

                      yep!
                      All DEFINES += MODELUTILITIES_STATIC does is transforming MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT into an empty string. if that doesn't work then just manually do a find and replace

                        @VRonin oKay. In what files that stuff which i should to replace? I only can assume that such stuff MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT is macro, so it must be in some .h files, right?

                          Actually, it probably just easier to replace the entire modelutilities_global.h with

                          #ifndef modelutilities_global_h__
                          #define modelutilities_global_h__
                          #define MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT

                              Hi,

                              Do you mean the symbol missing error ?

                              Did you build @VRonin library statically ?

                                      The .dll if you have built @VRonin's library.

                                      Otherwise, how did you integrate it in your application ?
