Hi you can maybe use the checkable property

Hi mrjj,

I could not find a way to implement your sample to QSQLTableModel... It did not work...

I searched all samples given by QT.. but nothing on this. I found the sample spinbox delegate I transform QSpinBox to QCheckBox When I edit the Cell I get a checkbox but "true" "false" terms remains on the cell..

Any help is soooo valuable.. thanks...

ok.
the more full blown way is to use a delegate
Maybe this works better for you
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21498857/how-do-i-get-my-qtableview-with-qsqltablemodel-to-have-checkboxes-and-multiline

note the
ui->myTable->setItemDelegateForColumn(xxx)
as it sets the delegate and you must also do that on your tableview

Hi mrjj,

The code at stackoverflow is seems to work at first sight but it's buggy.. it cannot update data in the row.. I try to figure out why for 3 hours...

Hi All bug free version of the code is like this..

class definition

class CheckBoxDelegate: public QItemDelegate
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    CheckBoxDelegate(QObject *parent = 0);

    void paint( QPainter *painter,
                        const QStyleOptionViewItem &option,
                        const QModelIndex &index ) const;


    QWidget *createEditor( QWidget *parent,
                        const QStyleOptionViewItem &option,
                        const QModelIndex &index ) const;

    void setEditorData( QWidget *editor,
                        const QModelIndex &index ) const;

    void setModelData( QWidget *editor,
                        QAbstractItemModel *model,
                        const QModelIndex &index ) const;

    void updateEditorGeometry( QWidget *editor,
                        const QStyleOptionViewItem &option,
                        const QModelIndex &index ) const;

    mutable QCheckBox * theCheckBox;

private slots:

    void setData(bool val);


};

Class

CheckBoxDelegate::CheckBoxDelegate(QObject *parent ):QItemDelegate(parent)
{
}

void CheckBoxDelegate::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const
{
    //drawCheck(painter,option,option.rect,index.model()->data(index,Qt::DisplayRole).toBool()?Qt::Checked:Qt::Unchecked);
    drawDisplay(painter,option,option.rect,index.model()->data( index, Qt::DisplayRole ).toBool()?QString("      ").append(tr("Var")):QString("      ").append(tr("Yok")));
    drawFocus(painter,option,option.rect);
}

QWidget *CheckBoxDelegate::createEditor(QWidget *parent, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const
{
    theCheckBox = new QCheckBox( parent );
    QObject::connect(theCheckBox,SIGNAL(toggled(bool)),this,SLOT(setData(bool)));
    return theCheckBox;
}

void CheckBoxDelegate::setEditorData(QWidget *editor, const QModelIndex &index) const
{
    bool val = index.model()->data( index, Qt::DisplayRole ).toBool();

    (static_cast<QCheckBox*>( editor ))->setChecked(val);

}

void CheckBoxDelegate::setModelData(QWidget *editor, QAbstractItemModel *model, const QModelIndex &index) const
{
    model->setData( index, (bool)(static_cast<QCheckBox*>( editor )->isChecked() ) );
}


void CheckBoxDelegate::updateEditorGeometry(QWidget *editor, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const
{
    editor->setGeometry( option.rect );
}

void CheckBoxDelegate::setData(bool val)
{
    emit commitData(theCheckBox);
}

and don't forget

ui->myTable->setItemDelegateForColumn(xxx)

Have a nice day...
