Call QFileDialog when trying to edit cell of QTableView, put file name after return.

[toglia3d]

Hi, In my QTableView one of my columns refers to a file name, so when editing a cell of this column I would like to call a QFileDialog to make the user choose the file. And I know this can be done with a QItemDelegate.

So, this is my createEditor attempt:

QWidget *createEditor(
			QWidget *parent,
			const QStyleOptionViewItem &option,
			const QModelIndex &index
	) const {
		Q_UNUSED(option);
		Q_UNUSED(index);
 
		QFileDialog* editor = new QFileDialog(parent);
		editor->setFilter("*.png");
		editor->setDirectory(mResources);
 
		return editor;
	};

QWidget *createEditor(
			QWidget *parent,
			const QStyleOptionViewItem &option,
			const QModelIndex &index
	) const {
		Q_UNUSED(option);
		Q_UNUSED(index);

		QFileDialog* editor = new QFileDialog(parent);
		editor->setFilter("*.png");
		editor->setDirectory(mResources);

		return editor;
	};

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

And actually this does work. But I still wish I could use getOpenFileName to get the native dialog which looks cooler and also shows a preview of the images.

So is there a better way of doing this that I can use getOpenFileName method, maybe attaching some signals or slots?

Thanks for any help.
