      Hi,

      I think you have to subclass QHeaderView and implement that feature. Then you can set your custom header view on your QTableView

      EDIT: Jeroentje@home's idea is better

        Hi,
        Since the QAbstractItemModel (connected to view?) is able to be called with setHeaderData() function it is possible to alter the header data. IYAM you will have to set the flags in the model for the header to 'editable' and the view will do so. If you want nice qlable pup-ups you could also add delegates to do so.

        Greetz, Jeroen
