Get custom data from qstandarditem?

[numbat]

This is probably Python specific. In C++, you can do:

MyType variable = variant.value<MyType>();
 
// or use one of the built in to* functions.
QString str = variant.toString();

MyType variable = variant.value<MyType>();

// or use one of the built in to* functions.
QString str = variant.toString();
