    I am just starting to learn how to use QList Widgets. I am able to add items to my ListWidget, as well as select which one I want. What I want to do is when I click a button, I want to get the string that is selected (from the highlighted index within the list widget) and store it into a variable. Is this possible?

    Thanks in advance.

      Perhaps you want to use "currentItem()":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qlistwidget.html#currentItem on your QListWidget, and then "text()":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qlistwidgetitem.html#text on the returned QListWidgetItem.

        Hi,
        I have done the same thing this week. Here's what i did -
        @
        for (int list=0; list < listmodel->rowCount(); list++)
        {
        QStandardItem *newitem= listmodel->item(list);
        if(newitem->checkState() == 2) //For all checked items
        {
        // store it into your variable using newitem->text()
        }
        }
        @
        There are several ways of doing it, this is one.
        Hope this helps.
