    I also dont know how to force the QML TreeView to call the C++ headerData method

    since you use QtQuick.Controls 1 TableView you need to use the TableViewColumn element, which only supports roles.
    So you can add custom role names and forward those header roles to the headerData() method in the data() method.

    virtual QHash<int, QByteArray> roleNames() const {
        QHash<int, QByteArray> rn = QAbstractItemModel::roleNames();
        rn[MyHeaderRole1] = QByteArrayLiteral("header1");
        return rn;
    }
    
    QVariantdata(const QModelIndex &index, int role = Qt::DisplayRole) const {
         switch( role )
         {
            case MyHeaderRole1:  return headerData(0, Qt::Horizontal);
            ...
         }
         return QVariant();
    }

    @raven-worx thanks for answer. The thing is that at this point I am not certain anymore which version TableView I should opt for. On one hand I dont want to use the obsolete component which has columns and roles functionality mixed, and on the other this.new one doesnt seem to be ready for usage.

      and on the other this.new one doesnt seem to be ready for usage.

      Based on the example from the docs (untested though):

      TableView {
          id: tableView
      
          columnWidthProvider: function (column) { 
                  var colWidth = ...;
                  var headerItem = headerRepeater.itemAt(column)
                  if( headerItem )
                      headerItem.width = colWidth;
                  return colWidth; 
            }
      
          topMargin: header.height
      
          Row {
              id: header
              height: 40
              width: implicitWidth
              padding: 0
              spacing: 0
      
              Repeater {
                  id: headerRepeater
                  model: tableView.columns 
                  Item {
                         height: parent.height
                        // your column delegate
                  }
              }
          }
      }
      

      Could be easier/built-in indeed, but i think this should work (with minor adaptions probably).

      QAbstractItemModel::headerData() is directly invokable from within QML

        I'm not aware of a possibility to use headers directly even in the old tebleview

          @raven-worx Thanks for answer, but I am really lost at this one. What is supposed to be my column delegate?

          I am playing with this new TableView for over an hour now and I am not even able to set variable columns width (when the container width change). I wonder either this is a bug or a feature.

            @VRonin But would you say the new one or old one is more fit to use...?

                @raven-worx I tried a simple Text component and all that was visible was a single text (not sure either they were stacked one on another).

                Arent you guys aware any single code example showing how to do this all from ground up?

                  @VRonin Yes, I have just checked this. It overlaps my first row... Do you know either rows inserting and removing work? Meaning- If I remove or insert a row at runtime, will it update the view?
                  This seems to still be a very beta thing, I wonder either old or new controls should be used.

                  I understand and share your frustration on the state of views in QML, development has been focused on components that work well on mobile platforms (as QtWidgets is not really an option there) so views have been neglected.

                    is your model's columnCount() method called?

                        @VRonin Thanks for answer. I did snap a little bit, sorry for that...
                        I will give the new TableView another go according to yours and @raven-worx hints but as for now I think the Version 1 is more complete. The only lacking thing is to make the TreeView to call setData automatically (I only got this working in the new version). In the 1st version I am still calling a wrapper for it.

                        Thank you for help guys.
