But to understand, what is "the editor"? Is it an object inside QT library, or is it an external process in OS?

When you edit a cell, an editor is created so you can enter the new value.
See https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/model-view-programming.html#delegate-classes

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    QTableWidget tw(10, 10);
    QObject::connect(&tw, &QTableWidget::cellChanged, &tw, [&](int row, int) {
        tw.removeRow(row);
        }, Qt::QueuedConnection);
    tw.show();
    return a.exec();
}

welcome to devnet,

thx

How are you editing your cells ?

standard editing with left click (or dbl click) and entering the value, then "enter", or just click somewhere outside the editing cell

i'm dbl clicking the cell, then just "delete". then "enter" or click somewhere outside the cell. I understand, that this action just makes QTableWidgetItem's text empty and nothing more.

but any of these actions emits signal cellChanged(int, int).
this signal is connected with my own slot checkTheCells(int, int);

then, inside the signal i'm checking if row is empty. Empty means, that either:

• every cell item is empty

QTableWidgetItem* item; 
if(!item){...}

-or

item->text().size() == 0

if all cells in a row are empty, then i'm removing the whole row, because i don't need it

if(rowIsEmpty(changed_row) && total_rows > 1) food_table->removeRow(changed_row);

that's all

Any chances you have an editor opened in the row you are trying to delete ?
