(Porting old code - 5.14.2) Custom model derived from QAbstractItemModel receiving the wrong information?

[linuxkid]

Hey all, I'm under the need to add some functions on the fly, so I started looking at this old code which derives from QAbstractItemModel, theres a vector which holds the color of the row, setData looks like this:

bool ModeloComprobantes::setData(const QModelIndex &index, const QVariant &value, int role)
{
    if (index.row() > datos.size() || index.column()>titulos.size())
        return false;

    if (!index.isValid())
        return false;

    QVector<int> roles;

    if (role == Qt::EditRole)
    {
        datos[index.row()].insert(titulos[index.column()],value);
        roles.append(role);
    }
    if (role == Qt::BackgroundColorRole)
    {
        qDebug() << "ModeloComprobantes::setData(backgroundcolorrole):" << value;
        colorFila[index.row()] = QColor(value.toInt());
        roles.append(role);
    }
    emit dataChanged(index,index,roles);
    return true;
}

However, even though setData sends QColor("green") through the following sentence:

model->setData(model->index(index.row(),2/* column*/,QColor("green"),Qt::BackgroundColorRole);

The qDebug() line in the custom model tells me that the received color is QColor(ARGB 1, 0, 0, 0.501961, 0) which is seen black on the QTableView.

I do realize that the Role name has changed, so adding this feature in the old codebase having to migrate it over seems like a lot of lost time, however I wish to know what I'm doing wrong for the sake of completeness

Can anybody point me out?

QColor(value.toInt());

This is wrong - you convert a QVariant to an integer and assign it a QColor.

QColor(value.value<QColor>());

@Christian-Ehrlicher Christian, thanks again, I edited the code to send a QVariant(color.rgba()) and on the receiving end take it in as QColor(value.toUint())

Thanks again for your time, I'm marking this one as solved!

Use my solution as this is the correct one.
