Windows file explorer style window

bluscape

I am busy writing a disk editor for a file system not recognized by windows.
How would I go about creating a Windows Explorer type window with folder icons in QT? (See image)
I mean I can get creative but will appreciate some ideas or maybe someone has already done it.

Hi

and a Tree view ~~in icon mod~~e will get you a good beginning.

I will have a look at that thanks. I was thinking treeview as that will be very easy, but I'd prefer to have a window layout with icons.

since i had issues with QFileSystemModel in regards to the top item.
You could maybe use ListWidget and code from this model to get the dir and files.

Ok, I managed to get it working. I just used QListView components.
