I want to hide a specific node in QTreeView - C++ - QT

[developer_96]

Hello,
i want to hide a specific node in QTreeView.
For example i have a node called "Positions" in my QTreeView. I want to hide this node, so that the user can't see it by his name.
Is it possible? And if yes it is possible with the name or only with the index?

Regards

Well, I don't know if this is the best way, but you can always use a QSortFilterProxyModel to filter data items out. Might depend on what kind of "hide" you mean in a treeview.

With "hide" i want to achive that the user can't see the whole node i want to hide. I look to QSortFilterProxyModel i think with that i can be solved :)

If it is a node and you want its children to be filtered out too, you may need to set setRecursiveFilteringEnabled(true).
UPDATE
Or, you might not want that, and better left on default setRecursiveFilteringEnabled(false)?!

Thank you @JonB that is exactly what i want, to filter the node with its children out.
