Hi,
Let's say I need to display a list of items. Each item contains a QPushButton an image and some text. WHen a user clicks on the button something should happen ( ie I need to get the signal ). What is the right way to implement this in Qt?
After some reading, I understand that if I use a QListWidget and QListWidgetItem, this can be achieved. I can subclass each QListWidgetItem according to my needs and set them in the list widget.
However, I also read that a more appropriate approach ( the MOdel View approach ) is to use a QlistView coupled with a QItemDelegate. But if I'm using QItemDelegate, it seems that I can only paint the widgets. How can I get the push button event?
Sorry for this huge post. I'm kind of confused about the whole concept of when to use a QListWidget / QListView.
