Retrieve current font from model

[Mark81]

In my model I want to change the font in some particular cells, hence I'm going to use the Qt::FontRole:

QVariant MyModel::data(const QModelIndex &index, int role) const
{
    if (!index.isValid()) return QVariant();
    if (index.row() >= _items.count()) return QVariant();

    item_t item = _items.at(index.row());

    switch (role)
    {
    case Qt::FontRole: {
        auto font = ???->font();  // how to retrieve the current font?
        font.setBold(true);
        return font; }
    }
    // ...
}

But I'm not able to retrieve the current font to change it. Of course I can create a new one, but it would break any other settings...

@Mark81 I don't think this is how this works, The View will request the font it's going to use via FontRole. If you donÄt specify a Font than the default one QFont f will be used. You''have to decide inside the data function when to set it ti bold and when not.

@J-Hilk Got it. I didn't know that declaring QFont font; was enough to set it as the current font of the view!
