Unable to use QComboBox's setItemData() method for QStandardItem objects (PySide)
-
I've checked everywhere to see whether someone else has reported this as a bug, but I've seen nothing--as a result, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I don't believe so because this is extremely straightforward. Whenever I set the data value of a QComboBox item (using setItemData() method OR embedding the data in the addItem() method as in the code below), it apparently doesn't take -- even though no error is reported, the call to retrieve the data (using the itemData() method) returns a NoneType! I quickly created a very simple QDialog() script to print the results to the terminal; please let me know if you reproduce the problem or not:
@from PySide.QtCore import *
from PySide.QtGui import *
import sysclass Form(QDialog):
def init(self, parent=None):
super(Form, self).init(parent)
self.setWindowTitle("Adding QStandardItem as the value to QComboBox's setData() method")self.model = QStandardItemModel()
item1 = QStandardItem("Item 1")
item2 = QStandardItem("Item 2")
item3 = QStandardItem("Item 3")
self.model.appendRow(item1)
self.model.appendRow(item2)
self.model.appendRow(item3)option1 = "option 1"
option2 = "option 2"
option3 = "option 3"self.comboBox = QComboBox()
self.comboBox.addItem(option1, item1)
self.comboBox.addItem(option2, item2)
self.comboBox.addItem(option3, item3)layout = QVBoxLayout()
layout.addWidget(self.comboBox)
self.setLayout(layout)self.comboBox.currentIndexChanged.connect(self.printItemData)
def printItemData(self):
print "The item associated with that index is: ", self.model.item(self.comboBox.currentIndex())
print "The data linked to that item is: ", self.comboBox.itemData(self.comboBox.currentIndex())app = QApplication(sys.argv)
form = Form()
form.show()
app.exec_()@I was under the impression that the value of setItemData() could be any object. Is this a bug? (Or do I perhaps have a bad installation?)

I'm looking at C++ Reference, so I may be wrong about this but in Qt C++ addItem / setItemData declaration shows "QVariant". maybe you might want to use row index or "Item n" for the ItemData
