Pysyde/QTableView: openPersistentEditor works only once?
-
Hi,
Did you check the size of the model when
initComboBoxesis called ?
If it's valid, can you try not replacing the delegate ? -
Hi guys,
I have a table view that has to display some comboboxes on its 5th column.
So, on init, i set a delegate (previewModeDelegate) and draw some comboboxes:def initComboBoxes(self): model = self.view.model() self.view.setItemDelegateForColumn(4, previewModeDelegate(self)) for r in range(model.rowCount()): res = self.view.openPersistentEditor(model.index(r, 4))the delegate:
class previewModeDelegate(QItemDelegate): def __init__(self, parent): QItemDelegate.__init__(self, parent) self.items = [] self.items.append("No FX") self.items.append("Motion Blur") self.items.append("DOF") self.parent = parent def createEditor(self, parent, option, index): self.editor = QComboBox(parent) for i in range(len(self.items)): self.editor.addItem(self.items[i]) # getting node, getting the data cNode = index.model().cameraData[index.row()] value = cNode.GetProperty("previewMode") self.editor.connect(self.editor, SIGNAL("currentIndexChanged(int)"), self.cbCallback) self.editor.setCurrentIndex(value) return self.editor def cbCallback(self, value): editor = self.sender() self.parent.view.commitData(editor) self.parent.view.closeEditor(editor, QAbstractItemDelegate.NoHint) def setModelData(self, editor, model, index): value = editor.currentIndex() # getting the node, setting the data cNode = model.cameraData[index.row()] cNode.SetProperty("previewMode", value) return Trueeverything works fine, i get some nice working comboboxes:
problem is. during the sw usage, i have to reset the model and recreate the comboboxes.
So, in the gui init, i connected the InitComboBoxes method to the the resetModel signalself.cameraModel.modelReset.connect(self.initComboBoxes)After i reset the model, the initComboBoxes method is launched but the comboboxes are not reinitialized correctly:
I am still very new to Pyside MVC. I tried tinkering with the code, but with no results. Any help?
Ty,

I use PyQt, but pretty similar to PySide. This probably has nothing to do with your problem, but...self.parent = parentQItemDelegateinherits all the way fromQObject.parent()method. Is it a good idea to create an instance attribute with the same name as an inherited method?In your code, you could get rid of that anyway and simply use the existing
parent()method instead. You won't need your ownparentattribute in any of your classes deriving fromQObject. -

@SGaist
hi, i checked and the model looks always valid to me.
My impression is that on a model level everything works - in fact, the numbers that i see on the combobox column are coming straight out of it.
Also, I just noticed that if i double click the cell and go into edit mode, I still get my combobox delegate and I can correctly edit the values; the combobox disappears as soon as i'm done with the edit.I tried moving the setItemDelegateForColumn method around - only in init, after the openPersistentEditor, before it, duplicated...but no luck
@JonB
good call, didn't know that, I fixed it. But sadly, as you said, that didn't solve the issue -
modelResetshould be emit after endResetMode.What version of PySide are you using ?

I was facing exactly the same problem with PyQt5.
I was creating a QTableView and assigned a QStyledItemDelegate to one of the columns and opened the persistent editor for the column items.
Whenever I was programmatically adding a new row and reopening the persistent editor for all table rows, the tableview data did not change upon selecting a new item in the QComboBox of the item delegate.
It took me a while to figure out that persistent editor was actually behaving as expected for the very last row of the table.
I'm pretty sure that when opening the peristent editor after having added a row to the table, a second QComboBox is drawn ontop of the already existing ones in rows 0:(numberOfRowsOfOriginalTable).I've been able to solve the problem by effectively closing the existing persistent editors and reopening them again for all rows of the updated table.
Nevertheless, I would expect PyQt to ignore the openPersistentEditor() command on rows where the persistent editor is already open or to give out an error message.

@Almoedi hi and welcome to devnet,
Thanks for the detailed analysis and solution !
Would it be possible for you to provide a minimal script showing the persistant editor issue ?

There's no need to close them first.
The issue here comes rather from the replacement of the delegate. There's no need for that. If you just set it in the constructor and trigger the persistent editors when you add a line, you should be fine.
One thing that might be worth checking is why replacing the delegate does not close de persistent editor. I do not know whether it's on purpose as you asked for a persistent editor after all.
