PyQT: Creating custom Widgets for QListView

Question

I want to add a custom Widget to the QListView, i read already the SO thread about Delegates. QListView/QListWidget with custom items and custom item widgets

But how is this applied in pyqt? i couldn't find any example. Some articles show how to overwrite the paint function, which will only change the appearance but not add a widget as an item.

Google "pyqt delegate example", found: saltycrane.com/blog/2008/01/pyqt4-qitemdelegate-example-with — Mel

This example is for painting a widget, not for composing widgets. — user1767754

I'm not sure what you mean. What's the difference according to you ? — Mel

It's not setting a widget for an element, its just changes how it appears, in the example you provided, it just changes the background color to red. But i would like to add per item, a custom widget, which can contain for example a qpusbutton or another widget. — user1767754

setCellWidget() if you can switch to QListWidget or QTableWidget add custom widget to QTableWidget cell

...or you can just spawn new Widget in a cell rectangle via delegate like I do here: delegate that edits bound python object properties

We used code like this to handle text, number, date, boolean, image, document file, coordinate, list properties etc of our domain objects.

Thanks for the Source Max, Is there a file missing ? You have the: ObjectDelegate, but it's not used anywhere, i would like to see how you use this within a list/table view.

I'd attach small sample tomorrow. Briefly, we used it with custom Q(Table|Tree|List)Widget, but you surely can do it with QTableView

Thank you very much bro, i will look into those examples, that helps a lot! By the way, i somehow could see your other files on your driver share too, just make sure, no one sees your private stuff!!
