Drag items in QListWidget while the mouse left button is pressed
-
I am having trouble with the dragging of items inside a QListWidget, the items which are selected are stuck with the mouse cursor even after the mouse button is released. I want to reorder the items inside the QListWidget by dragging them though mouse while the mouse left button is pressed.
I have promoted my ui->listwidget to a custom listwidget to accept drag and drops.@#include"QtGui"
#ifndef PROJECTLISTWIDGET_H
#define PROJECTLISTWIDGET_Hclass ProjectListWidget : public QListWidget
{

void mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *event);
void dragEnterEvent(QDragEnterEvent *event);
void dragMoveEvent(QDragMoveEvent *event);
void dropEvent(QDropEvent *event);
void performDrag();
QPoint startPos;
};#endif // PROJECTLISTWIDGET_H

}void ProjectListWidget::performDrag()
{
QListWidgetItem *item = currentItem();
if (item) {
QMimeData *mimeData = new QMimeData;
mimeData->setText(item->text());
QDrag *drag = new QDrag(this);
drag->setMimeData(mimeData);
emit itemDrag();

Hi,
do you want to only move the items within your view or also from one view to another ?
In the first case you might be interested by "DragDropMode property":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qabstractitemview.html#dragDropMode-prop

I am moving items between different views also(dragging items from QTreeView), all is working well but when I drag items inside the listbox I am facing this problem.
