Need help from QT Experts ( Model / View for QDateTimeEdit widget)
-
HI @VRonin ,
Model is almost correct small difference is ( date is also broken to a separate child as below)
Parent A
2019
12
25
13
58
15
Wednesday ( this one is not must)And you want it displayed as a list that appears ( not as a list but i want to display and edit using a QDateTimeEdit widget or similar)
2019-12-25 13:58:15 2019-05-30 20:30:55if it is a tree widget or tree view then it is no problem it works directly.( element wise )
proxy , i have read about this and tried to implement but did not succeed( it is easier in a table widget or Tree i think). do you have a example of this to a seperate widget?
Something like this minimal example is what you want or did I miss something?

view
HI VRonin,
Thank you for your reply. This would work but my model is not a local one , it is set from a different class using a set-model function(example). I need it because the model might change during run time. in this case i need dynamic signal slot right ?. I have a requirement of sessions in my program if a session is changed then the model changes which i have to set it externally.
Thanks and regards

Nothing difficult, mine was just an example, just remove everything in the constructor before
QVBoxLayout* minLay = new QVBoxLayout(this);and add a publicvoid setModel(QAbstractItemModel* model){view->setModel(model);}that you can use to set a new model from outside this class. Everything else is all the same -
You can use
QDataWidgetMapperwith custom delegate.void MyDelegate::setEditorData(QWidget* parent, const QModelIndex& index) const { if (auto dte = qobject_cast<QDateTimeEdit*>(editor); dte) { auto* model = index.model(); const auto& year = model->index(0, 0, index.parent()).data().toString(); const auto& month = model->index(1, 0, index.parent()).data().toString(); // ... QDateTime dt = QDateTime::fromString(/*combine above to QDateTime*/); dte->setDateTime(dt); } }Then map your
QDateTimeEditwithQDataWidgetMapper, set delegate. and voilaYes i tried that but when the model data is changed then the signal is not fired , it never comes to this function . why is that ?
QObject::connect(lView->selectionModel(), &QItemSelectionModel::currentChanged, this, [this](QModelIndex idx) -> void { qDebug() << "modelchanged " << idx; } -

Do you mean the whole model is changed, or just one item? If it's the former:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qitemselectionmodel.html#currentChangedNote that this signal will not be emitted when the item model is reset.
and you might mean:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qitemselectionmodel.html#modelChangedThis signal is emitted when the model is successfully set with setModel().
or am I grasping the wrong end of the stick for what you are saying?

@JonB Thank you .
sorry i want to correct few things . Your code is working fine with view and set model i have just verified that. The reason it didnt work was i was not displaying my view.
I must not show view to user . i just have to map the model to widget(QDateTimeEdit) and show that widget to user. I thought with view it might work if i dont show this to user. just set everything but not showing. This dont work right? please correct me.I meant both cases. in one case , one child value will be changed in another case a new model is set.I can connect these signals as you mentioned but they work with TreeView when visible right?

@VRonin parent has a name , which is fixed. I will find it based on the name. The respective Model index is used unless a new model is updated.
just a bit more explanation to be clear. I have a tree model and all these elements/children in tree model should be shown in view as a widget easily editable( ex: text box, checkbox, combobox, spinbox ..etc) . These standard items are working using widget mapper. I search for a parent and map its model index to one of the these standard widgets. In this model i also have 6 children's having date ,time info. I wanted to map these 6 children's to a single widget datetimeedit. This was my main issue . This is not possible with restriction on datawidgetmapper ( only one property can be mapped ).
thanks and regards.
