Is it possible to assign different types to a role in a ListElement ?

Dear Qt'ers, please, take a look at the following code:

ListModel {
    ListElement {
        display: "foo";
        type: EType.EText; // EType is my own enum, loader selects the source component based on the value of this role
        comboData: []
    }

    ListElement {
        display: 1; //<-- want to use index 1 in the combo box
        type: EType.EList;
        comboData: [ ListElement { display: "one" },
                     ListElement { display: "two" } ]
    }
}

This is a mock table of one implemented in C++. Everything looks fine except that I'm getting a warning :

<Unknown File>: Can't assign to existing role 'display' of different type [Number -> String]

Again, the index of the combo box is set correctly, the value is "two", but I'm wondering how do I handle this warning ?

You can’t assign different types to the same role, if you populate via QJSValue.
In that case you could just use another data role, e.g. edit instead of display.
I recently played with a combo box in a table view and ended up doing it that way.

@Axel-Spoerl Thank you. Actually, I've found that putting a string also works :

ListElement {
    display: "1"
    ...
}
