List withembedded check boxes

[bruccutler]

Hello,
This is a simple question, I hope:

I want to create a scrollable list with a string and a checkbox by each item.

What is the best way to do this? Which control:

Here's the example:

[] Option 1
[] Option 2
[] Option 3
...

Recommendations of which control to use?

It depends on what approach you want to use : custom model or convinience view.
Basically you can do that through item delegates (for a custom model) or using the setItemWidget() (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/qlistwidget.html#setItemWidget) method of QListWidget...

Both methods will achieve what you need but one is significantly easier but far less flexible than the other...

Hope this helps. :)

Initially, because of time schedule, I'm all for convenience and less flexible. So, which is which? I assume the setItemWidget is the simpler of the two, correct?

Sounds like a QListView (or a QListWidget) with checkable items.

QListWidgetItem::setFlags(), Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.2/qt.html#ItemFlag-enum)
