QTableWidget keeps currentrow to deselected row

Crag_Hack

Hi I have a QTableWidget that I select items from. I show information about the currently selected item in the mainwindow widget. However when I deselect an item the current row stays as the row just deselected. What I'd like it to do is change current row to -1 if no row remains selected or change current row to the most recently selected row of the remaining selected rows. Thanks for the help.

Hi,

How are you currently connecting this together ?

Maybe using the selection model would be a better solution.

Hope it helps

Here's the code:

connect(ui->jobsTableWidget,SIGNAL(itemSelectionChanged()),this,SLOT(updateButtons()));
void ReplicatorMainScreen::updateButtons()
{
    for (int count = 0; count < ui->jobsTableWidget->rowCount(); count++)
        if (ui->jobsTableWidget->item(count,0)->isSelected())
            selected = true;
    if (selected == true)
        emit updateJobInfo(ui->jobsTableWidget->currentRow(),0);
}

I was thinking maybe I could use a stack to keep track of selected rows and change to the previous selected row when necessary... anything easier ideas?

Why not use the selection model hasSelection method for that purpose ?

Sorry for the delayed response been busy.. can it do what I mentioned in the first post regarding current row being changed to most recently selected row?

You have to store the last selected row and re-use it when needed.
