TableView rowDelegate highlight problem

Ralf_Sonnenbaum

Hello!

I would like to have a TableView which can show a contextMenu if the user clicks the right mouse button on an item. So I wrote my own rowDelegate with a MouseArea. Selecting and showing the menu works fine, but the highlighting does not change if I select another item. What I mean is this: I select the first item in the TableView. The item is highlighted and everything is fine. But then I select a second item and the highlight of the first item stays, so both items are highlighted (but only one item is selected). I have spent a surprising amount of time on this, at least so it seems, simple problem. What am I doing wrong? Thank you for your help.

@TableView {
id: tableView

anchors.fill: parent
anchors.margins: 2
frameVisible: false
alternatingRowColors: false
backgroundVisible: false

model: myModel

TableViewColumn {
role: "name"
title: qsTr("Name")
}
TableViewColumn {
role: "value"
title: qsTr("Value")
}
rowDelegate: Rectangle {
width: tableView.width
color: styleData.selected ? "blue" : "transparent"

MouseArea {
  propagateComposedEvents: true
  anchors.fill: parent
  acceptedButtons: Qt.LeftButton | Qt.RightButton
  onClicked: (mouse.button === Qt.RightButton) ? contextMenu.popup() :  tableView.selection.select(styleData.row)
}

}
}@

Well, it turned out it was a simple problem after all. You have to call selection.clear() before calling selection.select.
