SizeHint's "option" seems to be out of date when handed down to function

[ronM71]

I have a QListView with an AbstractItemDelegate doing the "sizeHint" and "Paint" for my rows.

My goal:

Every "mouse-over" row should double in height so that I can draw more on it.

problem:

In my paint method: the "option.state & QStyle::State_MouseOver" is always correct and i use it to slightly highlight the row the mouse cursor is on...

in my SizeHint method however, the "option.state & QStyle::State_MouseOver" is always "off", even if the row is currently under my mouse. This makes it impossible for me to suggest a different height for the row base don that case.

Is that a Qt bug?

There certainly are issues in that area of Qt. I've ran into similar problems before.

Edit:
See for instance this "report":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11227.
