Selection of item in QListView when selected using Mouse

[Stoned Jesus]

I have a QListView which contains QStandardItemModel which displays thumbnails.

When I select the items using Mouse, mouseMoveEvent is called followed by selectionChanged.
The selection scenarions are mentioned below -

Assume the numbers(1,2,3....) to be the items

Scenario 1 - In case thumbnail display is 2 horizontal rows.
[1] [2]
[3] [4]
[5] [6]
[7] [8]
Lets assume they are displayed as above, then the item selection is in the below order
1,3,5,7,2,4,6,8

whereas the expected selection is

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

Scenario 2- In case thumbnail display is in 3 horizontal rows.
[1] [2] [3]
[4] [5] [6]
[7] [8] [9]
[10] [11]
Lets assume they are displayed as above, then the item selection is in below order
1,2,4,5,7,8,10,11,3,6,9

where as the expected selection is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11

Can anyone please suggest a way to get the listview item selection as expected?

I have tried by changing the selectionBehavior and selectionMode too. Currently the selectionBehavior id ExtendedSelection.

Hi,

Are you selecting your thumbnails from left to right and up to bottom ?

The result appears to be the same when I select either from left to right or top to bottom.

Looking at the selectedIndexes documentation I would say that you will have to do the sorting yourself

I tried using qsort... It worked..:)

Thank you ....
