@mrjj Next small problem :)
I have now ( in the picture is small error - the third row have smaller rectangle ( whre is text "somethingABC ") - I change it in paint application; this rectangle have width like the others )
My delegate:
path.addRoundedRect(QRectF(option.rect), 10, 10);When I change it to:
path.addRoundedRect(QRectF(option.rect.x(), option.rect.y(),option.rect.width()/2,option.rect.height()), 10, 10);I get:
There are 3 columns in QTableView:
the first one for my messages
the second one - seperator
the third for other person's messagesI would like to align to right the third column - yellow rectangles. Like this:
With the text there is not a problem:
painter->drawText(QRect(option.rect),Qt::AlignVCenter, index.data().toString());But function
painter->drawPath(path);doesn't have a parameter with alignments
@qwe3
Hi
Only drawText uses align. Not other paint functions as far as i know :0Since option.rect IS the cell, i think you just need to set
ui->table->horizontalHeader()->setStretchLastSection(true);so the last col is actually to the far right

@mrjj Thank you, I think I can use something like:
path.addRoundedRect(QRectF(option.rect.x()+100, option.rect.y(),option.rect.width()/2,option.rect.height()), 10, 10);for the last column.
But there is next problem :D
When I use:
table->verticalHeader()->setSectionResizeMode(QHeaderView::ResizeToContents);I get the perfect height for cell (0,0). Perfect. But cell (0,1) must has the same height like cell (0,0), so it can be too big for cell (0,1).

Please look at first row. In cell (0,0) there is text "somethingABC\ntext\njdsa". In cell ( 0,2 ) there is text "so". When I usetable->verticalHeader()->setSectionResizeMode(QHeaderView::ResizeToContents);QT resize height of the first row to height which cell (0,0 ) needs. But cell (0,2) must have the same height. In cell (0,2) there is only text "so" , so it can have smaller height.

Hi
But that is what ResizeToContents does ?
So if it has lesser text, it will be smaller.Do you want all to have same size regardless of text ?
ahh you mean the "so" should be smaller ?

@qwe3
Hi
I think that will be hard as one row can only have one height.
https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/qtableview.html#setRowHeight
but you can span cells to give them uneven sizes
void QTableView::setSpan(int row, int column, int rowSpanCount, int columnSpanCount)But im wondering if it would not be easier to just use a QListView ( you can reuse delegate)
and have 2 of them .
one in each side and then just some white Qwidget in between ? -
@mrjj I never used QListView. I don't need to use QTableView. But when I add 2 QListView there are two sliders to move? I would like to have only one like in QTableView ( on the right )
@qwe3
Its just like TableView but just having one column.Then each row can be any height you wish pr item/shape and same for the right one.
Else i think it get complicated to do with one tableView.
You would have to make one row as hight as the biggest shape or merge cells to allow it to be uneven.
Not easy in my book to calc that.
But your call.Well its not so hard to make both scroll at same time
connect(view1->horizontalScrollBar(), SIGNAL(valueChanged(int)), view2->horizontalScrollBar(), SLOT(setValue(int))); connect(view2->horizontalScrollBar(), SIGNAL(valueChanged(int)), view1->horizontalScrollBar(), SLOT(setValue(int)));and ofc you can just hide one of them if you wish

@mrjj Hello,
Could you tell me how will you do this GUI? Using QTableView, QListView or something other? At the moment please forget about 3 columns. Change it to only one column. In telegram application I see only one column for all people ( maybe two - the first one is for avatar in circle ). Do you know how it is done in telegram application? You told me that application has delegate. And it's using QListView too? What about the size of circle where is the text? How it is implemented that we have circle with text in other sizes?
