diffrend kind of lists of GUI

[tomixer]

Hello there,

I'm new in QT. I'm referencing to Qt 4.6.
I want to do a list of tasks to display (download manager app) and I'm not sure which one to use.

Row of the list would be containing Strings, Icon, Progressbar and button. Selecting multiple rows is needed also. I need labeled tabs, so as i understood QListView is not an option. I read the manual, but still don't know which one is best for me.

I choosed QTreeWidget. Is it the really the best option? Rows won't expand.

Can someone explain diffrences between QTreeWidget and QTreeView(in general widget and view list diff)?

As I understand QListView is for single list but without labels of columns(why?), QTreeView if for expandable items like file system explorer in Win, but also can be used for not expandable, ant QTableView is mostly for spreadsheets. Am I right or missing something?

Thanks in advance for all responses.

I would go for a QTabelView since then your progress bars, labels etc. are aligned in the right way. For customizations use a custom item delegate.

EDIT: But your QTreeView is also fine but if you won't expand the rows, you choose a widget with special options without using it. That is kind of waste resources.

I prefer to use QTreeView instead of QTableView most of the times as according to me it looks a bit better.

Still not clear to me:

Is there something specific which is not clear? Because for general answer I can only redirect you to the documentation: QTreeView vs QTreeWidget.

If there is one column, there is no point in labeling it.

The difference consists in the model/view architecture.

Is there possibility to do more columns in QListView? If not lack of labeling is clear.

Most interesting for me is what are main practical appliances for qtreelist and qtreewidget. Little explanation why wold be very helpful also.

No. QListView is by definition a one-column view.
