Allow selection of only single item in QItemSelectionModel

[ocgltd]

I have a TableView which uses an ItemSelectionModel for selection of rows. While it is working (I can select rows), I want to limit my selection to a single row only. In other words, if a row is already selected, deselect the old one and select only the new one. Using shift/ctl should not allow more than a single row to be selected.

Although I am using ItemSelectionModel in QML, this seems to be just a wrapper for QItemSelectionModel (and this forum seems to get more answers than QML forum). Can someone advise on the combination of selection flags I need to use? (I've tried a bunch of combinations and can't find one that does what I want).

I have read the selection flag documentation but I'm no further ahead (in fact its a bit confusing).

If I call select with options "Current" | "Toggle" then I will limit selection to a single row; however, it does not allow me to DESELECT that row by clicking on it again. (i.e. not toggling)

Edit: Seems these options are available for the Widgets QTableView but there doesn't seem to be corresponding options in QML.

I think you want to set the SelectionBehavior to QAbstractItemView::SelectRows
and the SelectionMode to QAbstractItemView::SingleSelection.

You're right - those properties are not exposed to the QML class. I guess I'll have to code a deselect, then select on click
