If you use the the same model instance in more than one place they will always have the same index. This may, or may not be what you want. FYI

@raven-worx Thanks for your answer. There is no other place in the code where I update/modify the model. Also the combo box is already created when the slot is connected and called, if this is what you meant. Initially I declare the combo box as such with an empty model:

ComboBox { id: comboInput visible: false anchors.fill: parent model: ListModel { id: model } }

And this is the connection in C++ (plus the code to get the settings view inside which the combo box exists):

//Connect signals emitted and received by Settings Form m_pQmlRoot = qmlEngine.rootObjects()[0]; item = qvariant_cast<QObject*>(m_pQmlRoot->property("settingsPage")); QObject::connect(bluetoothManager, SIGNAL(sig_DeviceDiscovered(QVariant)), item, SLOT(slot_deviceDiscovered(QVariant)));

@Devopia53 Thanks, the checkboxes are displayed at least but selection by mouse is very difficult. I don't know why. UPDATE I comment out li->flags() and things works fine.

You need to change QStringList to QList<QObject*>
From

class ComboboxUpdate:public QObject { Q_OBJECT Q_PROPERTY(QStringList comboList READ comboList) ... }

to

class ComboboxUpdate:public QObject { Q_OBJECT Q_PROPERTY(QList<QObject*> comboList READ comboList) }

for example you could change your code in this way or add a subclass

class ComboboxUpdate:public QObject { Q_OBJECT Q_PROPERTY(QStringList comboList READ comboList) Q_PROPERTY(int sqlid READ sqlid WRITE setSqlid NOTIFY sqlidChanged) Q_PROPERTY(QString text READ text WRITE setText NOTIFY textChanged) }

and in ComboBox you can use

ComboBox { id: typeComboBox model:combomodel.comboList textRole: "text" onCurrentIndexChanged: { var sqlid = typeComboBox.model[typeComboBox.currentIndex].sqlid; console.log(sqlid); } }

I hope that my answer will be helpful for you.

Thanks for sharing your findings !

It indeeds make sense since the views are read-only

Since you have a workaround, can you please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)
