How to select a range with ItemSelectionModel?

[patrickkidd]

The docs for ItemSelectionModel say you can pass a QItemSelection to ItemSelectionModel.select(selection, flags). Does anyone kn ow how this is possible? There is no ItemSelection type which would wrap QItemSelection. The docs are silent on this.

I am trying to implement shift-select to toggle a range in a TableView 2.

Thanks!

Hi,

Why not set the SelectionMode of your view to QAbstractItemView::ExtendedSelection ?

This is about the QML type and not the C++ type. Unless I’m misunderstanding you?

Sorry, I misread your post.

Did you already saw this thread about that matter ?

That thread is about Controls 1 while my question pertains to Controls 2 and item models.

I've made an example 'on a knee', but it uses some cheats. Maybe someone can provide some better examples.

I also need multiselect functionality in my GridView. What I see, only TreeView has selection property which can hold selection model. In my case, multiselect should be activated only when user hold CTRL key in focused GridView, I'm trying to solve this with CheckDelegate and nextCheckState function callback

I also am currently using a similar workaround where I have a C++ select(selectionModel, fromIndex, toIndex, SelectionFlags) that makes the call for me.

So then my original question is if it is possible to make the same call directly from Qml.
