I want to put a checkbox when working with treeview using QFileSystemModel.

[IknowQT]

There is a custom class that inherits QFileSystemModel class.
In conjunction with treeview, the folder is displayed in the loop path.

I want to display a checkbox in the ui, how can I do that?

If you Google for qfilesystemmodel checkbox you will find several discussions/examples.

To change the row size of the table view, use setitemdelegate to change the size.

Crash when subclassing in filesystemmodel.
I am getting an error in sizeHint of the itemdelegate class.

QSize usrItemDelegate::sizeHint(const QStyleOptionViewItem& option, const QModelIndex& index) const
{
	QSize oSize = QItemDelegate::sizeHint(option, index);

	if (m_nHeightSize != -1)
	{
		// Set tree item height.
		oSize.setHeight(m_nHeightSize);
	}

	return oSize;
}

Looking at the index, it seems that i is a garbage value.

QVariant usrFileSystemModel::data(const QModelIndex& index, int role) const
{
	if (role == Qt::CheckStateRole)
	{
		//this->checkIndex();
	}
	else
	{
		return QFileSystemModel::data(index, role);
	}
}

bool usrFileSystemModel::setData(const QModelIndex& index, const QVariant& value, int role)
{
	return false;
}

Qt::ItemFlags usrFileSystemModel::flags(const QModelIndex& index) const
{
	return QFileSystemModel::flags(index) | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable;
}
